This traditional Italian dessert requires no oven. The cheese mixture is dense yet light, and the ladyfingers soaked in coffee are fragrant and soft. It is a beginner-friendly dessert. Rich in protein and calcium, but high in sugar and calories, so enjoy occasionally. The process is simple and very friendly to baking newcomers—only about half an hour of hands-on work, then chill for four hours to set and serve.

## Ingredients

- 450 g Mascarpone cheese (马斯卡彭芝士) — per serving
  - Tip: Purchase high-quality mascarpone cheese that is refrigerated.
- 1 pack Ladyfingers (手指饼干) — per serving
  - Tip: Choose Savoiardi ladyfingers with a firmer texture.
- 350 ml Cooled espresso (放凉浓缩咖啡) — per serving
  - Tip: Freshly ground espresso yields better flavor.
- 4 pieces Pasteurized eggs (无菌鸡蛋) — per serving
  - Tip: Because raw ingredients are involved, you must use pasteurized eggs rated for raw consumption.
- 50 g Granulated sugar (白砂糖) — per serving
  - Tip: Fine granulated sugar dissolves more easily into the egg mixture.
- 10 g Cocoa powder (可可粉) — per serving
  - Tip: Use unsweetened pure cocoa powder.

### Optional

- 35 ml Rum (朗姆酒)
  - Tip: Either dark rum or coffee liqueur works.

## Tools

Glass Lock&Lock container, Whisk, Egg separator, Flour sifter, Mixing bowl

## Method (10 steps)

1. **Separate Egg Yolks and Whites** — Using an egg separator or the eggshell, carefully separate the yolks and whites of 4 pasteurized eggs, placing them in two clean bowls.
   - Duration: 2 min
   - Tip: The bowl for the whites must be free of oil and water.

2. **Whip the Egg Whites** — Add 10g of granulated sugar to the whites and whip with a whisk until soft peaks form (the whisk lifts with small, curved peaks).
   - Duration: 5 min
   - Tip: The degree of whipping determines the lightness of the final product.

3. **Mix Yolks with Sugar** — Add the remaining 40g of granulated sugar to the yolks in three additions, stirring continuously until the yolks lighten in color and become uniform.
   - Duration: 3 min
   - Tip: Adding in stages helps the sugar dissolve fully.

4. **Add Mascarpone Cheese** — Add the mascarpone cheese to the yolk mixture in three additions, stirring until completely smooth and free of lumps.
   - Duration: 5 min
   - Tip: Softening the cheese at room temperature beforehand makes it easier to stir.

5. **Add Rum** — Finally, add 35ml of rum to the yolk-cheese mixture and stir until combined.
   - Duration: 1 min
   - Tip: You can skip this step if you don't like the taste of alcohol.

6. **Fold Whites into the Cheese Mixture** — Add the whipped whites to the yolk-cheese mixture in three additions, gently folding until evenly combined.
   - Duration: 3 min
   - Tip: Do not stir in circles, as this will deflate the whites.

7. **Soak the Ladyfingers in Coffee** — Quickly dip both sides of the ladyfingers into the cooled espresso, then immediately remove and arrange them flat on the bottom of the container.
   - Duration: 5 min
   - Tip: Work quickly—soaking too long will make the ladyfingers break apart and turn mushy.

8. **Layer and Assemble** — Layer the container alternately with one layer of ladyfingers and one layer of cheese mixture, typically two layers of each.
   - Duration: 5 min
   - Tip: Adjust the number of layers according to the height of your container.
   ![Step 8: Layer and Assemble](https://media.githubusercontent.com/media/zkeq/vibe-cook-backend/dataset/images/steps/other_ti-la-mi-su-de-zuo-fa/step_8.jpg)
9. **Chill to Set** — Cover with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least four hours.
   - Duration: 240 min
   - Tip: The longer it chills, the better the flavors meld; you can remove it earlier if you're in a hurry.
   ![Step 9: Chill to Set](https://media.githubusercontent.com/media/zkeq/vibe-cook-backend/dataset/images/steps/other_ti-la-mi-su-de-zuo-fa/step_9.jpg)
10. **Dust with Powder** — Before serving, remove from the refrigerator and evenly dust the top with cocoa powder.
   - Duration: 1 min
   - Tip: Dusting just before serving prevents the powder from absorbing moisture and turning dark.
