Method
Whisk the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks until pale before adding them to the butter. Continue beating until creamy. Add the coffee and divide the mixture into 3.

Dip the amaretti in 2tbsp Tia Maria and place on top. Spread on a second layer of coffee cream and sprinkle with half the remaining chocolate and nuts.
