Ingredients
Scale
- 3 large egg yolks
- 70 g granulated sugar
- 225 g mascarpone cheese room temperature
- 350 g whipping cream
- 2 teaspoons matcha powder sifted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons matcha powder sifted
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 120 g hot water
- 24–30 ladyfingers
- 2 teaspoons matcha powder
Instructions
- Fill a pot with about 1 inch of water and bring it to a boil.
- In a mixing bowl that fits over the pot without touching the water, whisk together egg yolks and sugar.
- Remove the pot from heat once boiling and place the bowl on top, whisking continuously for about 5 minutes until the sugar is dissolved and mixture lightens in color.
- Take the bowl off the pot and blend in mascarpone cheese until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, combine whipping cream, matcha powder, and vanilla extract, then whip with an electric mixer to medium peaks.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until uniform.
- In a shallow dish, mix matcha powder, sugar, and hot water, whisking until slightly frothy.
- Quickly dip ladyfingers in the matcha soak just long enough to coat both sides without soaking through, then place a layer in a serving dish.
- Spread a generous layer of the mascarpone cream over the ladyfingers and smooth evenly.
- Repeat with another soaked ladyfinger layer, then mascarpone cream.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set.
- Just before serving, dust the top with matcha powder.
