		2 packages ladyfingers, toasted in a 375-degree oven for 15 minutes 2 cups espresso coffee, cooled 6 eggs, separated 3 tablespoons sugar, to taste (3 to 6) 1 pound mascarpone, (may substitute with cream cheese) 2 tablespoons marsala wine 2 tablespoons triple sec 2 tablespoons brandy 3/4 to 1 cup bittersweet chocolate 5 tablespoons butter 3 eggs, separated 1/2 cup sugar 1/2 cup marsala wine Soak ladyfinger cookies in cooled espresso. Layer the soaked ladyfingers in one layer in a rectangular serving dish. Beat 6 egg yolks with the sugar until the yolks turn pale in color. Add the Mascarpone, the liquors and stir gently. In a separate bowl, beat 6 egg whites with a wire whisk until they are stiff. Gently fold the whites into the Mascarpone mixture. Melt chocolate in butter, set aside to cool slightly. Whip 3 egg yolks until light. Add sugar and beat over a double boiler until it is slightly thickened, fluffy, and light. Slowly add the Marsala wine, constantly whipping.

Make a layer of the cheese mixture on top of the ladyfingers in the serving dish. Then layer with the chocolate mixture.

Cover with tin foil and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. Garnish with fresh whipped cream.
