|
In a mixer, with the whip attachment, whip yolks and sugar until thick and
pale in color [ribbon stage]. Add mascarpone and whip until well incorpo-
rated. Pour water into a small bowl, then pour powdered gelatin into it. Do
not stir. Allow gelatin to absorb all of the water, for about 15 minutes. Place
the bowl on top of a small saucepan containing simmering water [creating a
double boiler]. Immediately turn off the heat and allow the gelatin to dissolve
completely. In a separate bowl, whip egg whites to a soft peak, gradually add
sugar, then slowly pour in the dissolved gelatin. Whip it to a stiff and glossy
peak. Fold whites into mascarpone and yolk mixture then fold in the whipped
cream. In a separate bowl, combine espresso and kalhua. Soak 1 lady finger
at a time in the espresso mixture. In an 8 by 10- inch pan, arrange the soaked
lady fingers closed together in a neat rows until the bottom of the pan is
completely covered. Pour 1/2 of the mousse over the lady fingers and smooth
with a rubber spatula. Sprinkle half of the chocolate shavings over mousse.
Create another layer and chill until set.
