Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

5 Large Eggs, separated* 1 Pound Cake (homemade or
5 tb Granulated Sugar - store-bought)
18 oz (1 1/2 pkgs) Mascarpone, at Fresh Strawberries or

1. To make the sauce, beat the egg yolks and sugar together in a
bowl with a mixer until light and lemon-colored. Beat the mascarpone
into the egg-yolk mixture until well blended. Don't overmix, or
sauce may separate. Beat in the 2 tablespoons of brandy.

2. In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites until they form stiff
peaks. Fold egg whites into the Mascarpone mixture. Refrigerate
until serving time.

3. To serve, cut the cake into 1 inch thick slices, place on a plate
and spoon mascarpone sauce over it. Decorate each portion with fresh
berries. From Chicago Tibune Magazine, May 2, 1993
