Ingredients:

- 6 egg yolks

- 3/4 cup granulated sugar

- 2/3 cup strong brewed coffee, cooled

- 2/3 cup coffee liqueur (such as Kahlua or Tia Maria)

7. Repeat the process with another layer of soaked ladyfingers and the remaining mascarpone mixture.
8. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the tiramisu to set.
