Rich and Creamy Tiramisu

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. + standing Cook: 10 min. + chilling YIELD: 16 servings.
Tiramisu is Italian for pick-me-up, and this one is definitely true to its name! My version of the classic Tuscan trifle has both coffee and espresso for layers of java flavor. —Lauren Knoelke, Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Ingredients

  • 2 cartons (8 ounces each) mascarpone cheese
  • 5 large egg yolks
  • 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, divided
  • 1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons Marsala wine, Kahlua (coffee liqueur) or rum, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 3/4 cup strong brewed coffee, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons instant espresso powder

Whisk egg yolks, 1/2 cup sugar, 1/3 cup Marsala and salt in top of a double boiler until mixture is thickened (ribbon stage) and a thermometer reads 160°. Remove from heat; whisk in mascarpone until almost smooth. Beat cream and remaining sugar until soft peaks form; fold into mascarpone mixture.
