  In a double boiler, place egg yolks and whisk constantly until fluffy before adding sugar. Whisk continuously until it gets thick; add half of Marsala wine and continue whisking until smoother. Add the remaining liqueur and whisk until tiny bubbles form on the surface and the mixture gets smooth and thick. Remove from heat to cool completely and transfer to a large mixing bowl.

  To assemble Tiramisu, dip ladyfingers in the espresso mixture for a few seconds – don’t let them sit too long otherwise they will soak up and get soggy. Place them next to each other in a 10 X 10-inch baking dish until bottom is filled. Scoop half the mascarpone mixture and using an angled spatula, smooth it out. Repeat with another layer of lady fingers followed with cheese mixture. Before spooning the mascarpone mixture, gently press on the ladyfingers to even them out. Make sure to spread cheese mixture evenly.
