This egg, sugar and alcohol mixture is called a zabaglione.
In another bowl, add the Mascarpone cheese the Espresso coffee. Whip until the cheese mixture forms soft peaks.
In another bowl, add the egg whites and beat until stiff. Fold the egg whites into the zabaglione.
Dip the lady fingers into the remaining brandy or Marsala wine and arrange them, flat side down, on the bottom of a serving dish. Cover the lady fingers layer with half of the Mascarpone mixture, then half the zabaglione, then half the whipped cream.
Repeat the above process to complete one more time to finish the Tiramisu.
