All your great feedback on our chocolate mousse recipe made us want to continue sharing our little culinary secrets with you!
Today we're going to reveal how to turn a simple tiramisu into a tiramisuccess, enough to impress even the greatest chefs.
INGREDIENTS FOR 4 GOURMETS:
– 40 g dark chocolate = 1/2 of our incredible Dark 71% cocoa bar = the guarantee of a successful recipe
– 4 eggs (free-range hens, of course!)
– 40 cl milk
– 100 g white sugar
– 500 g mascarpone
– 21 ladyfingers (including 1 to gobble up as soon as the packet is opened, to allow for a little trip down memory lane)
– A little fairy dust, or chocolate powder depending on taste
READY? SET!
Step 1: After cracking your eggs de-li-cate-ly, separate the yolks from the whites into two different bowls.
Step 2: Roll up your sleeves and with a good dose of elbow grease, beat the egg yolks and sugar (come on, don't give up).The luckiest among you will find a magical electric appliance with two whisks, more commonly known as a "mixer," at the back of their cupboard.
Step 3: Since we're not here to suffer, we'll slow down the pace to gently incorporate the mascarpone into the egg yolk and sugar mixture to obtain a smooth and creamy consistency.
Step 4: Let your preparation rest slightly, but not your arm; yes, now you have to beat your egg whites until they form stiff peaks.
Step 5: Use your best wrist work to incorporate the stiff egg whites into your first mixture (yolks - sugar - mascarpone). Today's tip: add a little water to make your task easier!
Step 6: In a saucepan, heat milk in which you will melt half of your Dark 71% cocoa bar.
Step 7: Before drinking it all, dip the ladyfingers in the hot chocolate and arrange them in a suitable dish until you have a first layer, which you will cover with a thick layer of your mascarpone mixture.
Step 8: And repeat! Start again until you have scraped your containers clean: a layer of biscuits then your mixture, then biscuits, then your mixture, then biscuits, then your mixture, then biscuits, then your mixture, then biscuits, then your mixture, then biscuits, then your mixture, then biscuits, then your mixture, then biscuits, then your mixture, then biscuits, then your mixture…. STOOOOP YOU'RE CRAZY! You'll choke on your tiramisu!
Step 9: Sprinkle with chocolate powder and let the magic happen for 3 to 4 hours in your fridge.
