Separate the proteins from the yolks. Whisk the whites with a pinch of salt until strong spikes. In a separate bowl, whisk the yolks with sugar - the mass should whiten and increase in size 3-4 times.

Cut mascarpone and mix it with yolks, kneading it homogeneously. At this stage, you can use a mixer. To the yolk-cheese mass carefully add whipped proteins, kneading from the bottom up. Take care of the airiness of the cream, do not be zealous. Since you have allowed yourself to tiramisu (calorie content, of course, you remember), then it should be ideal not only for taste, but also for texture.

Mix in a separate bowl of chilled coffee and alcohol. Bottom the portioning molds with a small amount of cream. Alternately, soak the Savoyardi sticks into the coffee, leaving them in the liquid for 2-3 minutes - they must be completely soaked, while retaining the shape. Spread the cookies over the cream in the molds as tightly as possible. Lubricate the "Savoyardi" half of the cream. Repeat the procedure with impregnation and pastry filling. Place the remaining cream over the top and sprinkle cocoa abundantly. Refrigerate overnight.

• If you want to get a portioned tiramisu cake, the calorie content of which by 100 grams will be similar, then add to the cream 5-7 grams of gelatin, previously diluted in 50 grams of cream;
