Separate the egg whites from the yolks into two separate bowls. ![Easy Traditional Italian Amaretto Tiramisu Recipe Step 1](https://casa-bandera.com/images/easy-traditional-italian-recipe-tiramisu-amaretto-step-1.jpg) 2 Whisk the egg yolks with the brown sugar and vanilla sugar until smooth and slightly foamy. Add the mascarpone and whisk vigorously until you obtain a smooth, creamy texture. ![Easy Traditional Italian Amaretto Tiramisu Recipe Step 2](https://casa-bandera.com/images/easy-authentic-italian-recipe-tiramisu-amaretto-step-2.jpg) 3 Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form using an electric mixer. If the cream seems too runny, continue beating the whites to achieve more firmness. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the mascarpone mixture using a spatula to preserve the airy texture. ![Easy Traditional Italian Amaretto Tiramisu Recipe Step 3](https://casa-bandera.com/images/easy-traditional-italian-recipe-tiramisu-amaretto-step-3.jpg) 4 In a bowl, mix the cooled black coffee with the shot of Amaretto. Make sure the coffee is completely cooled before using it. Quickly dip the ladyfingers into the mixture: they should be lightly soaked without falling apart. Do not let the cookies soak too long, as they may break. ![Easy Traditional Italian Amaretto Tiramisu Recipe Step 4](https://casa-bandera.com/images/easy-traditional-italian-recipe-tiramisu-amaretto-step-4.jpg) 5 Arrange a layer of soaked ladyfingers at the bottom of a rectangular or shallow dish.

Alternate layers of ladyfingers and cream until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of mascarpone. ![Easy Traditional Italian Amaretto Tiramisu Recipe Step 5](https://casa-bandera.com/images/easy-traditional-italian-recipe-tiramisu-amaretto-step-5.jpg) 6 Cover the tiramisù with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator.
