Tiramisu

17 oz mascarpone cheese (I use 3 small containers)
3 egg yolks
1/2 c sugar
1/2 c heavy cream
2 c brewed espresso or really strong coffee
1/3 c marsala wine (Italian brands are less sweet)
2 pkg lady fingers (the hard ones, not the ones like twinkees)
cocoa powder for dusting on top of the dessert
Combine 1st 4 ingredients with electric mixer. Beat until fluffy and smooth.
Brew espresso. Combine it with the marsala wine. Dip lady fingers in espresso mix and arrange in pan (I put the lady fingers in the pan 1st. Then, using a soup spoon, I spoon the espresso mix onto each of the lady fingers. That's about 1-2 spoonfuls each lady finger. You don't want them to be too wet or you have a hard time spreading the custard on top of them). Spread 1/2 the mascarpone mix onto the lady fingers. Add another layer of lady fingers, spooning espresso mix onto each lady finger. Carefully spoon the rest of the mascarpone on top and spread it over all the lady fingers. Dust the top with cocoa powder using a sieve or flour sifter. Refrigerate the whole thing at least 2 hrs. It should be fairly set when you serve it.
