  • Arborea Mascarpone 250 g
  • Eggs 2
  • Sugar 75 g
  • Rhum 25 ml

Instructions

  • 1 Begin by whipping the egg whites from both eggs with 50 g of sugar, ensuring they are at room temperature before starting. Use an electric whisk or a stand mixer and beat until stiff peaks form.
  • 2 In another bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the remaining 25 g of sugar until the mixture becomes light and fluffy. Add the mascarpone and the rum, and mix gently until smooth and creamy.
  • 3 Finally, gently fold the whipped egg whites into the mascarpone mixture, using slow movements from the bottom up to keep the texture airy.<br>Once combined, refrigerate the cream for at least 30 minutes before serving. Your mascarpone cream is now ready — perfect for filling cakes, layering a tiramisù, or serving in small glasses topped with a dusting of unsweetened cocoa powder.
