How to cook deliciously - Classic Tiramisu

1. Stage

Place a medium saucepan filled halfway with water over medium heat and bring to a simmer. In a large heatproof bowl, whisk egg yolks and 1/2 cup sugar and set over simmering pot. Cook, whisking frequently, until doubled in volume and velvety smooth, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in mascarpone until smooth.

2. Stage

In a large bowl, using a handheld mixer (or the large bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment), beat cream, vanilla, salt, and remaining 2 tablespoons sugar on medium speed until stiff peaks form, 3 to 4 minutes. Fold whipped cream into mascarpone mixture just until combined.

3. Stage

In a large glass measuring cup or other tall glass, stir coffee and rum. One at a time, dip ladyfingers into coffee mixture.

4. Stage

In a 13" x 9" baking dish, arrange 20 dipped ladyfingers in an even row. Pour about half of custard over ladyfingers; smooth top. Repeat with remaining ladyfingers and custard. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours or up to overnight.

5. Stage

Dust top of tiramisu with cocoa powder.
