Gather @cocoa powder{2%tbsp}.

Whisk the @egg{4} yolks with the @sugar{100%g} until pale and thick, then beat in the @mascarpone{500%g} until smooth.

In a spotless bowl, whip the egg whites with a pinch of @salt{} to firm peaks and fold them gently into the mascarpone in two additions.

Dip each @ladyfinger{300%g} into the cooled @espresso{300%ml} for barely a second per side and lay a tight layer in the dish.

Spread over half the cream, add a second layer of dipped ladyfingers, and finish with the remaining cream.

Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours, ideally overnight, for the layers to fuse. ~{4%hours}

Dust thickly with cocoa only just before serving.
