My version of Tiramisu(strawberries, rum and turkish coffee!)

Serves a gazillion. okay about 13 people. need a big bowl. I had enough leftover to bring to work.

So first you wash, hull and thickly slice a package of strawberries. Then you put it in a bowl with 2 tbsp of white sugar and about 1/3 cup of rum.

Let it sit. Grate about 100g of dark chocolate and leave it aside.

Then you beat 4 egg yolks with 1c of rum until well mixed. then add the Mascarpone cheese and beat until smooth.

In a seperate bowl. You beat the egg whites(4) until frothy, then while you're beating it, add 1c of white sugar. Beat until stiff so it can stand like this:


Quickly fold into the cheese mixture.


Then you dip lady's fingers(the sponge one. not the vegetable!) into cold espresso. In my case, I used turkish coffee. You need about 500g package of sponge fingers and still have 4 fingers leftover.
so you dip it and line a dish with it. Put one layer of strawberries. Then one layer of the cheese mixture. and one layer of grated chocolate.
Repeat the layering. and viola!

So easy!
