Tiramisu with soft macaroons from Mombaruzzo

Tiramisu is one of the world's best-loved Italian desserts. In this version we propose it with soft macaroons from Mombaruzzo, which give an intense almond fragrance and a velvety texture. An elegant dessert, ideal for surprising guests with an original variation of a great classic.

Ingredients (for 6 persons)

• 300 g soft macaroons from Mombaruzzo
• 250 g mascarpone
• 3 fresh eggs
• 80 g sugar
• 200 ml lightly sweetened espresso coffee
• 2 tablespoons of Marsala liqueur (optional)
• bitter cocoa powder q.b.

Procedure

1. Prepare the coffee and let it cool. If you like, add a dash of Marsala.
2. Separate the yolks from the egg whites. Whip the yolks with the sugar until light and fluffy, then incorporate the mascarpone.
3. Whip the egg whites until stiff and gently add them to the mascarpone cream.
4. Quickly soak the macaroons in coffee and place them in an oven dish, creating an even layer.
5. Cover with cream, then repeat alternating layers until you run out of ingredients.
6. Sprinkle with bitter cocoa and leave in the fridge for at least 3 hours.

With the soft macaroons, the tiramisu acquires an enveloping and slightly aromatic note that wins you over at first taste.
