Homemade Tiramisu

I would have included a picture, but it was all eaten as soon as it was ready to come out of the fridge....
16 oz mascarpone cheese
6 eggs
1 cup sugar
2 T brandy or cognac
2 cups espresso or strong coffee( i used a medium body Italian roast)
20-25 lady finger cookies
cocoa(for dusting)

blend together sugar, brandy or cognac, 2 T of the coffee, beat together 2-3 minutes, then add mascarpone and beat til smooth 3-5 minutes. Beat egg whites til they form stiff peaks, fold into first mixture. Dip cookies in coffee and place in a single layer in 9x13 dish( i prefer glass), cover with mascarpone mixture, sprinkle top with cocoa. Refrigerate at least 3 hours and enjoy!
