Tiramisu

1/2 cup cream
2 yolks
1/2 lb. mascarpone 
1/2 lb. sponge cake
1/2 cup espresso
1/2 cup espresso liquor
1/4 cup sugar
2 tbs. powdered sugar
2 tbs. cocoa

Preparation:

1. Put the egg yolks in a bowl, add the sugar and beat with an electric whisk so that the mix is creamy and soft.
2. Add the beaten eggs and mascarpone a little at a time, mixing well with a spatula, so that there are no lumps.
3. Whip the cream with the powdered sugar, then add the mascarpone cream, stirring with a spatula. Place in the fridge. Sprinkle the slices of sponge cake with a mixture of coffee and liqueur. 
4. Prepare a layer of sponge cake. Cover with 1/3 of the cream, then cover with another sponge cake piece and continue until you run out of ingredients, finishing with the cream. Sprinkle with cocoa. 
  
In my own humble opinion, I think this is best served with some espresso.
