Recipe: Lady fingers (for Tiramisu cakes)
Ingredients
--------------
* 5 egg whites
* 4 egg yolks
* 2/3 cup sugar
* 1 dash vanilla
* 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
* 1 cup all-purpose flour
Lady Fingers Recipe Procedure
-------------------------------------
* Separate eggs into two separate bowls.
* Beat egg whites on high speed until foamy.
* Add two tablespoons of the 2/3 cup of sugar to the egg whites. Continue to beat until stiff peaks form, and set aside.
* In a separate bowl, add vanilla and remainder of the sugar to the egg yolks and beat.
* Set it aside.
* Sift together the flour and baking powder.
* Fold half of the egg whites into the yolks. Do it real gently.
* Fold the flour mixture into the yolks.
* Fold the rest of the egg whites into the yolks.
* Put the batter into a pastry bag. ( I use a a ziploc bag with the corner snipped off.)
* Pipe the batter onto a greased cookie sheet.
NOTE: Traditionally they are shaped like two lady sized fingers. But they are going to be layered and covered. It really doesn't matter.
* Bake for about 6 minutes. Stay close because all you want is the edges to turn brown.
