Add the cookie powder to the mixture and stir.
Finally, gently fold in the stiffly beaten egg whites using a Maryse/spatula.

Observations
What to replace the lady fingers with?
They can be replaced by boudoirs. They are drier, so you will only need 3.5 oz (for 18 portions).
What does 18 portions in this recipe correspond to?
This corresponds to around 18 rochers, depending on the size you give them.
Can we substitute raw eggs in this tiramisu?
You can make whipped cream with 30% fat cream (10cl), mascarpone (9 oz), powdered sugar (1 tablespoon), vanilla extract (1 teaspoon), coffee (1 tablespoon) and mix it with the spoon cookies.
How to store these little tiramisu?
You can keep them for up to 3 days in an airtight container in the fridge.
