Servings: 8 servings

INGREDIENTS

3 egg yolks
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup Tia Maria or Kahlua liqueur
1 container (475 g) ricotta cheese
1 cup strong coffee (double strength)
1/3 cup Tia Maria or Kahlua liqueur
24 lg. ladyfingers
3 tbsp. cocoa

INSTRUCTIONS

Place egg yolks and sugar in microwaveable bowl. Wisk until creamy. Add 1/3 cup Tia Maria or Kahlua liqueur. Whisk well. Microwave on medium high power for 2-3 minutes, stopping to whisk at 1 minute intervals. Mixture should be thick and creamy. Whisk in ricotta cheese until smooth. Set aside. Combine coffee and 1/3 cup (75ml) liqueur. Arrange half of the ladyfingers in a 9x9 inch (23x23cm) glass baking dish. Brush with half of the coffee mixture. Spread with half of the cream mixture. Repeat layers. Sprinkle with cocoa.

For festive occasions layer ingredients into a medium sized decorative glass bowl or trifle dish. The number of layers will be determined by the shape and size of the bowl. Remember to completely cover ladyfingers with cheese mixture.

Cover and chill in refrigerator for 3-4 hours or overnight. Can be frozen for up to 2 weeks. Defrost in refrigerator for several hours before serving.
