  1. Coffee Brew the 100 g strong espresso or moka coffee, unsweetened and pour it into a wide, shallow bowl to cool completely. 6 min to 30 min
  2. Mascarpone Cream Separate the 4 very fresh eggs, putting the yolks in one large bowl and the whites in another, spotlessly clean bowl. Not a drop of yolk should get into the whites. 5 min
  3. Add 50 g sugar to the yolks and beat with an electric mixer until pale and frothy. 3 min to 5 min
  4. With the beaters still running, add the 500 g mascarpone a spoonful at a time until you have a dense, smooth cream. Set aside. 3 min
  5. Wash and dry the beaters thoroughly. Whip the egg whites with the 50 g sugar until they hold stiff peaks. 4 min to 6 min
  6. Stir one spoonful of the whites into the mascarpone cream with a spatula to loosen it.
  7. Add the rest of the whites in one go and fold very gently, scooping from the bottom of the bowl up over the top, until evenly combined. 2 min
  8. Assembly Spread a generous spoonful of the cream over the bottom of the dish.
  9. Dip the 88 g savoiardi (ladyfingers), about 42 into the cold coffee one at a time, a moment on each side, and lay them in the dish side by side, all facing the same way, to make a single layer. 5 min
  10. Spread about half of the remaining cream over the biscuits, covering them completely.
  11. Make a second layer with the 88 g savoiardi (ladyfingers), about 42, dipped the same way, then cover with the rest of the cream and level the top. 5 min
  12. Sift a generous layer of unsweetened cocoa powder over the top.
  13. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 h, ideally overnight, before cutting into squares. 4 °C
