In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pasteurized egg yolks and 1/2 cup of the granulated sugar until the mixture is pale yellow and thick, about 2–3 minutes. Add the cold mascarpone and beat with a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed until smooth and fully combined, about 1–2 minutes. Set aside.
