PREPARATION
Make cocoa-heavy hot chocolate and put aside to cool
In stand mixer whisk egg yolks and 1/2 cup sugar until pale yellow and tripled in value, minimum 5 minutes but probably longer
Transfer to big bowl, clean out mixer bowl
In mixer bowl, put in 1.5 cups heavy cream and another 1/2 cup sugar and whisk until soft peaks - happens VERY QUICKLY so keep an eye!
Add mascarpone and whip into soft spreadable mixture with medium peaks

Dust bottom of 9x13 pan with cocoa powder
Dip ladyfingers quickly one at a time into hot chocolate and then lay out into pan, breaking some in half if needed to fill in open spaces
