I know it's not a Polish recipe but this dessert is in the menu in most restaurants here, even not Italian ones. Tiramisu is really easy to make and has many delicious variations. I'm starting from the basic one which I found in an old Italian cookbook. 

The tricky part is that many people are afraid of raw eggs. But I assure you, there's absolutely no risk if you do as follows:
- wash the eggs in warm water with dishwashing liquid
- be careful not to crash the shells!
- boil some water and pour some on the eggs.
That's it, you have totally salmonella-free eggs!

Now you can prepare your tiramisu :-)

BASIC TIRAMISU
for 2 dessert freaks

500 g of mascarpone cheese
200 g of ladyfingers bisquits
4 egg yolks
4 spoons of sugar
100 ml of strong coffee
2 spoons of Amaretto (optional)
dark cocoa

Good tip: save the egg whites. You can use them to make protein-ful scrambled eggs or freeze them to prepare the macaroons later.

1. Whip the yolks with sugar until they're white and fluffy.
2. Add mascarpone and just blend with spoon.
3. Prepare a dish: large bowl or cake mould will be good.
4. Mix coffee with alcohol in a shallow bowl.
5. Soak every bisquit in the bowl and make a layer in your dish.
6. Put half of your yolk-sugar-mascarpone cream on the layer of bisquits.
7. Repeat soaking bisquits, making a layer and putting the cream on it.
8. Hide in the fridge, lick the bowls and wait at least 2 hours.
9. Powder the surface with dark cocoa.
10. Serve cold.
