We will also provide you the recipe for ladyfingers and start immediately to prepare the original Italian tiramisu with savoiardi biscuits. 

We have to mount 12 large yolks or pasteurized yolks with 500 grams of granulated sugar whisk with medium-high speed whisk for a few minutes until a foamy mixture is obtained. Add a kilo of mascarpone, and we still whisk at high speed until all the lumps of mascarpone have disappeared; we prepare some espresso or with the unsweetened mocha for a total of about 250 milliliters and then let it cool. 

We place the Savoiardi Tiramisu in the center of a circular plate or, in this case, in an 18 x 8 cm container. First, spread a layer of cream and then a layer of lady finger biscuits for a total of 60 soaked in coffee without drenching them too much, or you can use Savoiardi biscuits  packaged or homemade ones remembering that the homemade ones are thin. Therefore you can also decide to use a double layer of lady finger biscuits.

Start whipping six large yolks as soon as the sugar comes 121 ° C. Pour it flush into the yolks without stop blending slightly, lowering the speed, and then reporting speed at top speed until the mixture is icy. 

Let's move on to high-speed 500 grams of mascarpone with 500 grams of fresh cream creating a firm cream. We gradually increase the speed up to the maximum speed, then we mix the two compounds gently with circular movements from the bottom until obtaining a smooth and very soft cream.

 Add the mascarpone cream in two portions allows us to keep the mixture better soft and fluffy. Cut into flakes. Add 150 grams of dark chocolate, or if we want, we can also use chocolate chips. We prepare espresso, or all slightly elongated mocha moderately sweetened for a total of 250 milliliters and let it cool down.

This time, we will sprinkle the dark chocolate, then again Savoiardi biscuits, cream, dark chocolate Savoiardi, and end with a simple decoration created with a smooth spout and bitter cocoa powder.
