Ingredients

• 2 egg yolks
• 2 1/2 T. sugar
• 1/2 t. vanilla extract
• 1 c. mascarpone cheese, at room temperature
• 2/3 c. heavy cream
• 5-6 ladyfingers
• 1/4 c. cold-brewed coffee
• 1 1/4 c. fresh raspberries
• cocoa powder, for dusting

Steps

1. In a heatproof bowl, mix egg yolks and sugar together until they become pale yellow.
2. Set another heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, making sure that the water doesn't touch the bottom of the bowl. Cook on low heat, stirring and whisking constantly, until mixture thickens and forms a ribbon trail on the surface when a whisk is lifted, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the heat; let cool a bit.
3. Whisk in vanilla; beat in mascarpone until smooth.
