Cook safely

  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. Stir the espresso, sugar and brandy together until the sugar dissolves. Remove 1/3 cup of the mixture and set the rest aside. Whis the egg yolks into the 1/3 cup of coffee mixture. Add the mascarpone and whisk together until smooth, do not overmix or it may separate. Line a 9 1/2x5 1/2″ loaf pan with a large sheet of wax paper. Dip the ladyfinders into the reserved coffee mixture, one at a time, briefly. Place them crosswise in the prepared pan. |Continue until the bottom of the pan is lined . Spread on half of the cheese mixture. Sprinkle with 2 oz. of the chocolate. Repeat for the next layer. Top off with a final layer of ladyfingers. Fold the wax paper over the top and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 6 hours. Invert the chilled loaf onto a serving platter. Remove the wax paper. Place the cream, vanilla and confectioner's sugar in a bowl and whip until stiff. Spread whipped cream all over loaf and decoratively with a pastry bag. Place the cocoa in a fine strainer and dust the top. Slice and serve.
