Instructions
Cream Filling
- Grab a 9-inch springform pan and set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer combine the egg yolks and granulated sugar. Mix for 3-5 minutes, until the mixture is a very pale yellow. Mix in Frangelico, then pumpkin pie spice and salt. Then mix in mascarpone and pumpkin puree combine until no white streaks remain. Scoop batter into a larger bowl. Using the original bowl beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Then fold the whipped cream into the pumpkin mascarpone mixture.
- In a piping bag fitted with a small round tip or a Ziploc bag with the corner, tip cut off fill with Nutella, set aside.
Coffee Mixture
- In a shallow large dish combine strong coffee with espresso powder and Frangelico, set aside.
Assembly
- Dip each ladyfinger for 1/2 second into the coffee mixture, be careful as you do not want the fingers to be soggy. Layer the ladyfingers around the prepared pan in a single layer. Then scoop 1/3 of the pumpkin cream mixture and spread evenly on top of the single layer of ladyfingers. Drizzle Nutella in a zig-zag or circular pattern to cover the majority of the top. Then dip more ladyfingers and create a second layer topping with 1/3 of the pumpkin cream mixture and drizzle with Nutella again. Finally do the exact same for one more layer, finishing the Nutella layer as decorative as you would like.
- Wrap the pan with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for at least 6 hours preferably overnight.
- Keep in fridge for 4 days, if it lasts that long!
