3 large egg yolks

1/2 cup (100 g) granulated sugar

1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream

1/2 cup (140 g) pistachio paste (or finely ground pistachios made into a paste)

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks and sugar together until pale and creamy.
Add the mascarpone cheese and pistachio paste to the egg mixture and mix until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form and then gently fold it into the mascarpone mixture.

Before serving, garnish with chopped toasted pistachios.

Notes

For the best flavor, allow the tiramisu to chill overnight. Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of sugar in the mascarpone mixture.
