GMT Tirami su, which translated means 'pick  me up' or 'lift me up',
due obviously to the large amount of calories  in it, is now known all
over the world.  Originally it was called  zuppa del duca (the duke's
soup) and was created in honor of a visit  by Grand Duke Cosimo
de'Medici III to Siena. The Grand Duke took the  recipe home to
Florence, where it became popular in the English  intellectual and
artistic colony by the end of the nineteenth  century. They, in turn,
took it to England and the dish in now also  known in Italy as zuppa
Inglese (English soup). Serves 4.  Put the egg, sugar and vanilla in a
bowl and mix gently to a creamy  consistency.  Add the mascarpone and
fold in to obtain a cream.  Put  the coffee in a bowl with the coffee
liqueur.  Dip the biscuits for a  second or two in the coffee mixture,
letting them absorb just enough  to keep firm but not fall apart.
Starting with the biscuits, arrange  in four individual dishes
alternating layers of biscuits and  mascarpone, ending with mascarpone.
Dust with cocoa powder and put  into the fridge to set and chill.
Enjoy and don't worry about the calories for the flavor is worth it.
