Ingredients:

Sponge Biscuit:
3 eggs
2 tbsp. hot water
3-1/2 oz. sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla essence
3 oz. all-purpose flour

Filling:
4 egg yolks
6 tbsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla essence
3-1/2 oz. mascarpone cheese
7 oz. paneer
1 tbsp. gelatine
3 egg whites, stiffly beaten
1/2 cup coffee liqueur
2 tbsp. brandy or rum
Cocoa powder as required

Directions:

Beat eggs and hot water with sugar and vanilla essence until stiff. Fold in the flour. Pour into a greased round 22.5 cm. tin and bake for 30 minutes at 180°C. Cool and slit the cake into two.

To prepare the filling, put egg yolks, sugar and vanilla essence in a pot and hold over a double boiler. Beat until the mixture turns creamy. Blend cheese and paneer in a mixer and add to the egg-sugar mixture. Dissolve gelatine in a little warm water and beat into the mixture. When cool, fold in the stiffly beaten egg whites.

To serve, place one slice of cake in a serving dish, soak with a blend of rum and coffee liqueur. Pour half of the prepared filling over it. Cover with the other slice of cake. Drizzle rum and liqueur mixture over it until well soaked. Top with the remaining filling. Chill in the refrigerator for at least two to three hours before serving. Sprinkle a lot of cocoa over the tiramisu.
