Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Oven and hot trays. Use dry oven gloves for trays and dishes: a hot tray looks just like a cold one. Open the oven door away from your face and let the first rush of heat out.
  • Hot sugar. Hot sugar sticks to skin and burns far hotter than boiling water: don't touch or taste it. Keep a bowl of cold water close, and keep children away while it cooks.
  • 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. In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream the ypolks and sugar until smooth. Add the mascarpone and mix on low speed for 2 minutes. Fold in the whipped cream mixture; set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the expresso, brandy and grappa. Dip 15 of the ladyfingers one at a time into the expresso mixture and arrange in a single layer on a 10-by-15-inch platter or a baking sheet, forming a rectangle abput 7 by 13 inches. Cover with half the mascarpone mixture. Repeat the layers with 15 more ladyfingers dipped in the expresso mixture, then the remainding mascarpone mixture. Sift the chocolate over the top. Halve the remaining 18 ladyfingers and arrange them vertically around the edge of thecake. cut side down. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours. Cut into squares to serve.
