500g Philadelphia cream cheese
5 egg, separated
80g sugar
½ tsp vanilla extract
250ml coffee
1 pack of sponge fingers

Beat the egg yolks with the sugar, until frothy. Add the vanilla extract and the cream cheese and keep beating.
Whip the eggs whites until they form stiff peaks and fold into the cream cheese mix.
Dip a sponge biscuit in the coffee, and arrange in a medium rectangular dish. Make a full layer of soaked sponge biscuit and cover with half the cream.
Add another layer of soaked biscuit and pour the rest of the cream. Put in the fridge overnight.
