Instructions

1
In a shallow dish, combine the cooled coffee and tequila.
2
Lightly dust the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish with cocoa powder.
3
Working one at a time, quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture, ensuring it doesn't get too soggy.
4
Arrange the dipped ladyfingers in a single, tight layer at the bottom of the prepared dish.
5
Spread or dollop half of the mascarpone cheese evenly over the layer of ladyfingers.
6
Repeat with another layer of dipped ladyfingers and the remaining mascarpone cheese.
7
Dust the top of the tiramisu generously with cocoa powder.
8
Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
