By: Dominick Romano • In: Desserts and Baking • Cuisine: Italian

This was one of the recipes given to us by our family in Australia when they were visiting us in the United States.

Ingredients

  • 6 Eggs (separated)
  • 12 tbsp Castor Sugar
  • 9 oz Mascarpone Cheese
  • 34 oz Coffee
  • Sponge Finger Biscuits
  • Cinnamon

Step by Step Instructions

Step 1: 

Beat the egg whites and half of the sugar until soft peaks form. Beat well before setting the meringue aside.

Step 2:

Place egg yolks with the other half of the sugar in a metal bowl and place over a saucepan of boiling water.

Step 3:

Heat until thick and creamy. Allow to cool for 1 minute then fold in the Mascarpone Cheese followed by the meringue until mixture is well combined.

Step 4:

Line an 8 inch springform cake tin with parchment paper. Soak sponge finger biscuits in the coffee and place in a layer on the bottom of the tin. Spread half of the cream mixture on top of the biscuits then repeat the process to form a second layer.

Step 5:

Chill overnight before serving, dusted with cinnamon.
