- 1⁄2 cup superfine sugar (caster)

- 2 eggs, separated
- 8 ounces white chocolate, grated
- 20 Savoiardi cookies (Italian light sponge finger biscuits)

directions
- Combine sugar, water and lemon zest in a pan, and continuously stirring, bring to the boil.
- Reduce heat and let simmer for 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat, add amaretto liqueur, and set aside to cool.
- With an electric mixer, beat together the mascarpone, extra sugar and egg yolks,- be careful not to over-mix or otherwise the mascarpone will “yellow” and become grainy.
- In an absolutely clean and dry bowl with clean and dry beaters, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form.
- Gently fold through the mascarpone mixture along with the grated chocolate.
- Dip half the quantity of biscuits, one at a time and quickly, into the cooled sugar syrup – if dipped too long they will become mushy!
- Line the base of an 8” x 11” (20cm x 26cm) serving dish with the biscuits.
- Top with half the mascarpone mixture.
- Sprinkle the raspberries over the mascarpone mixture.
- Top with another layer of the biscuits dipped in the sugar syrup, then finish with the remaining mascarpone.
- Sprinkle the almonds over the top and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.

<p>I was raised in a family that loves to travel, meet people from other countries, and taste new foods. We are quite 'international' - my brother's wife is Indian, my sister's husband is Swiss and my son's wife is of Swedish and Croatian origin. My little dogs are German - miniature Dachshunds.</p>
