This is a recipe that I created when I wanted more chocolate in my tiramisu. I use normal coffee because some people in my family are not big coffee fans. I you want more coffee flavor, try using espresso instead of coffee. I've also made this with coconut flavored coffee and it was a big hit.

Chocolate Tiramisu Ingredients

-- ZABAGLIONE --	1 pound Mascarpone Cheese
4 Egg yolks	-- COFFEE --
4 tablespoons Sugar	2 cups Brewed coffee
2 ounces Semisweet chocolate	2 tablespoons Sugar
1/2 cup Marsala	1 tablespoon Vanilla
-- FILLING --	6 tablespoons Creme de cacao
1 cup Whipping cream , chilled	1 pkg (7 oz) Ladyfinger cookies
4 tablespoons Sugar	3 tablespoons Cocoa powder
3 tablespoons Cocoa powder

Instructions for Chocolate Tiramisu

1. Make Zabaglione: Melt chocolate and set aside to cool slightly. In top of small double boiler, beat egg yolks and sugar until mixture is a very pale yellow, about 3 minutes. Fold in chocolate and Marsala. Place double boiler over medium heat and whisk mixture constantly until it begins to bubble around the edges. Transfer zabaglione to a small bowl, cover and refrigerate 30 minutes.

2. Make Mascarpone Mixture: Whip cream with sugar and cocoa powder until stiff peaks form. Beat in mascarpone and zabaglione just until blended. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour.

3. Make Coffee Mixture: In a separate bowl, combine coffee, sugar, vanilla, and creme de cacao.

4. Assemble: Arrange 8 cookies on the bottom of a medium sized dish or bowl, breaking cookies to fit if necessary. (Note: cookies will not fit tightly; there should be some space between them.) Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the coffee mixture over each cookie so that they are saturated, but not falling apart. Spoon 1/3 of the mascarpone cheese mixture over cookies and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon cocoa power. Repeat layers two more times.

5. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
