Step by step
Make 3 pods of Nespresso espresso using your Nespresso® by KitchenAid. Set aside to cool.
In the bowl of your KitchenAid® Pro Line® Series 7-Qt Bowl Lift Stand Mixer, add egg yolks and sugar. Using the whisk attachment, mix for 5 minutes until eggs are creamy, fluffy and light in color.
Add mascarpone and orange zest. Continue mixing until smooth and creamy. Add Cointreau. Mix to combine. Transfer to a separate bowl and set aside.
In the bowl of your KitchenAid Stand Mixer, whip egg whites to a stiff peak. Gently fold mascarpone mixture with egg whites.
Place a bowl nearby with cooled espresso.
To assemble: Lightly dip ladyfingers into espresso. Make a layer of ladyfingers on the bottom of a KitchenAid® Nonstick 9″x9″ Square Pan. Follow with half of the cream mixture. Follow with additional layer of dipped ladyfingers and remaining cream.
Cover pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate over night. Before serving lightly dust the top with cocoa powder.
