Mascarpone Cream

Egg yolks beaten with sugar until pale, mascarpone, and whipped egg whites folded in: the cream for tiramisu.

⏱ 2 min

👨‍🍳 Method

  1. 1
    Beat the yolks with the sugar until pale and airy.
    WhiskorHand mixer
  2. 2
    Add the mascarpone and mix gently.
    💡Mix the mascarpone gently and don't whip it: hard mixing separates the fat and the cream turns grainy and runny.
  3. 3
    Whip the egg whites to stiff peaks. Fold them gently into the mixture.
