Instructions

  1. Line the base of a springform pan with parchment paper.

  5. In a mixing bowl, beat eggs and granulated sugar until pale and slightly thickened.

  8. Spread the chocolate silk layer evenly over the chilled crust.
  9. Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the cooled espresso and arrange in a single layer over the chocolate layer.
  10. In a separate bowl, beat mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and remaining 1/2 cup heavy cream until smooth and fluffy.
  11. Spread the mascarpone cream evenly over the ladyfingers.
  12. Dust the top with unsweetened cocoa powder.
  13. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, before slicing and serving.
