In a large mixing bowl, whisk egg yolks and sugar until frothy; add the cheese and marsala and whisk until well blended and smooth. In an another bowl, whisk the cream until stiff and fold in the cheese mixture until well blended. Spread 1/3 of the cheese mixture over the ladyfingers. Dip the remaining ladyfingers in coffee and layer over the cheese mixture. Spread the remaining mixture over the ladyfingers. Cover with plastic wrap and chill at least 6 hrs. When ready to serve, sprinkle the cocoa powder through a fine sieve over the entire tiramisu surface.
