Indulge in this exquisite dessert where delicate sponge cake is delicately drizzled with a blend of coffee and brandy, then layered with a luscious sweetened mascarpone mixture, and finally chilled to perfection before serving.

Ingredients

1	(9 inch) sponge cake
⅜	cup strong brewed coffee, room temperature
⅜	cup brandy
1 ½	pounds mascarpone cheese, room temperature
1 ½	cups confectioners' sugar
3	tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, for dusting

Instructions

1.	Begin by delicately cutting the sponge cake in half lengthwise to create two equally thin layers.
2.	In a bowl, combine the strong brewed coffee and brandy to create a flavorful mixture. Gently drizzle just enough of the coffee blend over the bottom cake layer to ensure it is moistened adequately without being oversaturated.
3.	In a separate bowl, whip together the mascarpone cheese and confectioners' sugar until the mixture achieves a light and fluffy consistency. Carefully spread half of this delightful cheese blend over the bottom cake layer.
4.	Place the remaining cake layer on top and generously spread the rest of the cheese mixture over it. Finish by generously dusting the tiramisu with a delicate layer of sifted cocoa powder.
5.	Allow the tiramisu cake to set and develop its flavors by refrigerating it for at least 2 hours before presenting this heavenly dessert.
