How to prepare the tiramisu cake
In a bowl, place the eggs and sugar. Mix with the electric hand mixer.
Add the flour and baking powder. Mix with the electric hand mixer.
Pour the batter into an 8-inch cake pan, previously buttered and floured. Bake in a preheated static oven at 356°F. Let it bake for about 30 minutes. Please verify the baking times based on your oven.
Meanwhile, prepare the cream. In a saucepan, place the coffee, egg, sugar, flour, and milk. Mix everything well with a whisk, making sure not to create lumps. Move to the stove and cook the cream until it thickens. Stir continuously. Once ready, turn off the stove and cover with plastic wrap touching the surface.
In another bowl, whip the cream and mascarpone with the electric hand mixer.
Add the cream to the whipped cream and mascarpone. Mix with the electric hand mixer. Set aside.
Remove the cake from the oven. Let it cool well, then cut it in half. Slightly hollow out the base. Moisten the base: I used milk and coffee, but you can choose your preferred soaking. Also moisten the inside of the top half of the cake.
Incorporate the chocolate chips into the cream. Mix with a spatula and fill the cake.
Close and store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
If you like, dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Storage
In the refrigerator: in an airtight container, it keeps for 2-3 days.
