Sambuca Shrimp Bucatini Tiramisu Roasted Garlic

Tiramisu

Friends and family will delight in a serving of Tiramisu with Illy espresso and rum-soaked ladyfingers and finished with mascarpone cream fine cocoa powder.

Ingredients:

6 egg yolks
3 Tbsp Sugar
1 pound Mascarpone cheese
1-1/2 cups strong espresso, cooled
2 tsp Dark rum
24 Ladyfingers, packaged
1/2 cup Bittersweet chocolate shavings, for garnish

Directions:

1. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer with whisk attachment, beat egg yolks and sugar until thick and pale, about 5 minutes.
2. Add mascarpone cheese and beat until smooth.
3. Add 1 tablespoon of espresso and mix until thoroughly combined.
4. In a small shallow dish, add remaining espresso and rum.
5. Dip each ladyfinger into espresso for only 5 seconds. Letting the ladyfingers soak too long will cause them to fall apart.
6. Place the soaked ladyfinger on the bottom of a 13x9 inch baking dish, breaking them in half, if necessary, in order to fit the bottom.
7. Spread 1/2 of the mascarpone mixture evenly over the ladyfingers.
8. Arrange another layer of soaked ladyfingers and top with remaining mascarpone mixture.
9. Cover Tiramisu with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, up to 8 hours.
10. Before serving, sprinkle with chocolate shavings.
