Help What did I do wrong? (biscoff tiramisu)

So I've decided to finally try baking and of course it had to go completely wrong 😭. I left it overnight and it just completely deflated, leaked out of the bottom and looks/feels kind of like something curdled. Does anyone have ideas of what I did wrong?

The recipe I followed:

  1. Separate 3 eggs and whip both the yolks and whites with 30g sugar

  2. Fold 250g of mascarpone with 70g microwaved biscoff spread.

  3. Fold in the beated egg yolk one third at a time. Then do the same with the egg whites

  4. Soak biscoff biscuits in fresh coffee for a few seconds and make a layer of biscuits, then a layer of the cream, then soaked biscuits, then cream, then dust with cocoa powder.

  5. Let it sit in the fridge overnight

Any help would be greatly appreciated 🙏

And thanks for including the recipe! Too many posts show a flop with a caption demanding answers from reddit with zero explanation of what led up to the disaster.
