Beeramisu
Stolen straight from here. But here is the recipe if you're too lazy to click the link:
1 pound mascarpone cheese
1 cup confectioner's sugar
2 eggs beaten (I didn't add eggs)
1 tablespoon vanilla
3/4 cup heavy cream, whipped
48 ladyfinger cookies (about 1 package)
6 ounces (3/4 cup) Porter beer (I used Young's Double Chocolate Stout)
1/2 cup brewed coffee, the stronger the better
1/2 cup cocoa
In a large bowl mix together the mascarpone, sugar, beaten eggs and vanilla. Fold in the whipped cream. Set this mixture aside.
In a shallow dish stir together the Porter beer and the brewed coffee, Dip the ladyfingers cookies into the coffee mixture. Don't let the ladyfingers get soggy. Arrange them in a single layer in a glass 8x8 dish. Spread 1/2-inch layer of mascarpone mixture on top of the ladyfingers. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup cocoa. Repeat this for the second layer. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least two hours before serving.
Serves 12
I brought this to a weekly gathering of cyclists who run together and then eat together, and it got rave reviews. I will most definitely make it again.
