Gelato Tiramisu
Tiramisu Ice Cream

For the coffee dip:
1 cup (240 cc) espresso coffee
2 teaspoons sugar

For the zabaglione gelato:
4 egg yolks
1/2 cup (100 grams) sugar
1/2 cup (120 cc) Marsala wine
1 1/2 cups (360 cc) whole milk
1/2 cup (120 cc) heavy whipping cream

For the base:
12 savoiardi (ladyfinger cookies)
Semi-sweet chocolate shaving for topping


Prepare a strong espresso coffee, about 1 cup (240 cc). Dissolve 2
teaspoons of sugar in it, when the coffee is still hot. Let the coffee
cool to room temperature. Place in the refrigerator for about 2 hours or
until cold. Preparing the zabaglione: Beat the egg yolks in a heat proof
bowl or in the bowl of a double boiler, until they become fluffy. Beat in
the sugar and the Marsala wine. Transfer the bowl over a pan of simmering
water, and whisk until the cream thickens. The zabaglione will thicken
just before boiling point, when small bubbles appear. Turn heat off and
set aside to cool while preparing the milk mixture.

Preparing the gelato: In a saucepan over medium heat combine cream and
milk. Heat until bubbles appear around the edge of the pan. Stir the
milk-cream into the zabaglione. Cool this mixture to room temperature.
Place the pan onto a bowl filled with ice and water if necessary. When the
mixture is lukewarm, place in the refrigerator for about 2-3 hours or
until cold. When the zabaglione mixture is cold transfer it to a ice
cream maker and follow the ice cream machine instructions. Transfer to a
container and place in the freezer until ready to assemble the tiramisu.

To assemble the Tiramisu gelato: Assemble the Tiramisu only few minutes
before serving it. Remember, home made ice cream melts faster than
industrial ice cream. Prepare the tiramisu in individual cups or glasses.

For each cup: Break 3 ladyfingers in two. Dip 3 pieces in the cold coffee
and place in the bottom of the cup. Top with 1 generous scoop of ice
cream. Place on top 3 more ladyfinger pieces, dipped in coffee. Top with 1
more scoop of ice cream. Top with chocolate shavings. Decorate with
chocolate or wafer cookies.
