Ingredients

• 250 grams Mascarpone cheese
• 200 ml Heavy whipping cream
• 100 grams Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 12 Ladyfingers
• 150 ml Strong brewed coffee
• 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 30 grams Dark chocolate shavings (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.

Step 2

Using an electric mixer, whip the mixture on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. This should take about 3-4 minutes. Be careful not to overwhip or the mixture may curdle.

Step 3

Brew a strong coffee and set it aside to cool to room temperature.

Step 4

Dip each ladyfinger into the cooled coffee for 1-2 seconds, ensuring it absorbs the liquid but does not become soggy.

Step 5

Layer six dipped ladyfingers on the bottom of your dessert dish or container.

Step 6

Spread half of the whipped mascarpone mixture evenly over the layer of ladyfingers.

Step 7

Repeat the process with the remaining six ladyfingers, layering them over the mascarpone mixture.

Step 8

Top with the remaining mascarpone mixture, smoothing it out with a spatula.

Step 9

Using a fine mesh sieve, dust the unsweetened cocoa powder evenly over the top layer.

Step 10

Optional: Sprinkle dark chocolate shavings over the cocoa powder for an extra touch of indulgence.

Step 11

Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.

Step 12

Serve chilled and enjoy the creamy, coffee-kissed delight with your loved ones!
