Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 Lady fingers -- hard
8 Egg yolks
1/4 cup Sugar
1 pound Mascarpone cheese
2 cups Cream heavy
2 cups Coffee -- strong cooled
2 tablespoons Sugar
2 ounces Kahlua
2 ounces Rum

Whip heavy cream until stiff. Whip egg yolks with 1/4 cup sugar until pale
yellow. Add mascarpone and whip until mixed well. Whip in the stiffly beaten
heavy cream until all is mixed well. Use almost any size container, usually a 9
x 13 clear dish. Put half of the cheese mixture on the bottom, spreading
evenly.
Mix the coffee with the kahlua, rum and 2 tbls sugar.
Soak the lady fingers, with the coffe mix, one at a time, until they absorb
some of the liquid, but still feel a little crisp. Place the soaked lady
fingers over the cheese layer in the dish. Top with the rest of the cheese
mixture and smooth over all with the back of a spoon. Coarsely chop some
bittersweet chocolate and sprinkle it over the top. Let stand chilled at least
6 hours before serving.
