What you need:
1 tsp of instant coffee powder
1/2 cup hot water
2 tbsp icing sugar
2 egg yolks
1 egg white
2-3 tbsp of cocoa powder
250gm Mascarpone cheese
About 15-20 ladyfinger biscuits (depends on the pan you use)
Method:
1. Mix the instant coffee powder with the hot water and beat lightly for a minute with a spoon. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
2. Add the icing sugar to the egg yolks and beat well in a electric beater, now add the cheese and beat well.
3. Whip egg white until stiff. Fold this gently into the cheese-yolk mixture.
4. Dip the ladyfingers in the coffee and layer them at the bottom of a square cake tin. Sprinkle cocoa powder over this generously.
5. Layer half the egg-cheese mixture over the biscuit layer. You can add some berries at this time if you wish. On top of the mixture, layer biscuits (dipped in coffee) once more and top off with some more cocoa powder and the rest of the cheese-yolk mixture.
6. Freeze overnight or at least 8 hours. Once it has set, sprinkle more cocoa powder or powdered sugar on top and serve chilled.
