Tiramisu Slices

This is something I've been wanting to try and make for a long time, thinking it was complicated, its NOT! :)

For the cake layers:

3 Eggs (separated)
3oz Castor Sugar
4oz Plain Flour
half tsp Baking Powder 

For the Filling:

300ml Double Cream
150ml Mascarpone
1tbsp Icing Sugar 

extras:
1tbsp Coffee Granules
Baileys Cream or Brandy

For the cake bases:

Whisk egg whites until forms soft peaks, add half of the sugar and whisk again.
Add rest of sugar in separate bowl with egg yolks and whisk with hand whisk until creamy.
Add half of the egg yolk mix into egg white mix, and whisk for a minute.

Add flour and baking powder into mix and fold in gently, the fold in rest of yolk mix gently.

Put cake mix into large piping bag with large plain nozzle.
Pipe "fingers" onto greased baking tray.
Bake for aprox 8-10 minutes until golden brown, ( they will spread).

Cool on wire rack.
These can be stored in air tight container until needed, or you can buy "lady fingers" and use those instead.

For filling:

Whisk double cream until thick, then add icing sugar and mascarpone and whisk until thick again.

To make up Tiramisu, you can use a tray bake tin, or make individual ones in ramekins or other small dishes.

Mix coffee granules with a little warm water so it is runny, add Baileys or Brandy according to your taste.

Place a layer of your cake fingers on bottom of tray or ramekins and use a pastry brush to soak cake liberally with coffee mix.
Spread half of you cream mix over cake, then repeat with another layer.
Finally use a fine sieve to shake a little cocoa powder over tops.

Best served chilled, before slicing
Enjoy!
