22. #### Step-by-Step Instructions
24. ##### 1. Prepare the Mascarpone Mixture
25. Start by whipping the mascarpone cheese in a large mixing bowl until it becomes light and creamy. Gradually add 1/3 cup of granulated sugar, continuing to whip until fully incorporated.
27. ##### 2. Whisk Egg Whites
28. In another clean bowl, whip 2 egg whites to stiff peaks using an electric mixer or whisk until firm peaks form. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the mascarpone mixture until just combined.
30. ##### 3. Prepare the Coffee
31. Meanwhile, prepare your coffee and amaretto mixture by combining cooled strong brewed coffee with 1/4 cup of amaretto liqueur in a large bowl. This will be used to dip the ladyfingers for added flavor.
33. ##### 4. Assemble the Tiramisu Layer-by-Layer
34. - Place a layer of soaked ladyfingers in your serving dish, ensuring they are evenly spaced and not overlapping.
35. - Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers, making sure to cover them completely.
36. - Repeat with another layer of soaked ladyfingers followed by the remaining mascarpone mixture.
38. ##### 5. Chill Before Serving
39. Once you have assembled all layers, cover the tiramisu and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. This allows the flavors to meld together perfectly.
41. ##### 6. Dust and Serve
