Instructions

1. Separate the egg whites from the yolks into two bowls.
2. Whip the whites, adding sugar gradually, until stiff peaks form.
3. In another bowl, beat the yolks with sugar until well combined.
4. Gently fold the yolk mixture into the whipped whites.
5. Add the vanilla, then fold in the cake flour in two or three batches.
6. Line a baking sheet with parchment and lightly grease it with non-stick spray.
7. Spread the batter evenly on the sheet and bake about 15 minutes, until golden and springy to the touch.
8. Cool the cake completely.
9. Brew strong coffee, stir in sugar to taste until dissolved, and let cool. Add rum, Kahlúa and Marsala (if using).
10. Whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks, then beat in the mascarpone and sugar until smooth. Gently fold the mascarpone mixture into the whipped cream.
11. Cut the cooled cake into two equal pieces (about 12x8 in each) and place one in a 13x9 in lasagna pan.
12. Brush the cake generously with coffee syrup, spread half the mascarpone mixture over it, then top with the second cake piece.
13. Brush the second piece with the remaining syrup and spread the rest of the mascarpone mixture over it.
14. Cover and refrigerate at least 4-5 hours, or overnight, until set.
15. Just before serving, dust the top with unsweetened cocoa powder through a fine sieve, then slice.
