Ingredients
Scale
- 250g mascarpone cheese
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/3 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- Ladyfinger cookies
- Non-alcoholic coffee or espresso
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- Granulated sugar or powdered sugar
Instructions
- Prepare the base: Start by mixing the brewed coffee (or your non-alcoholic alternative) with a tablespoon of sugar in a shallow dish. Set it aside to cool.
- Whip the cream: In a mixing bowl, whip 1 cup of heavy cream until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip, as you want it to remain fluffy.
- Mix the mascarpone: In another bowl, combine 250g of mascarpone cheese with 1/3 cup of powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder. Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Combine the mixtures: Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture in batches, ensuring you maintain the airy consistency.
- Soak the ladyfingers: Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture, making sure they are soaked but not soggy. Lay them in a single layer at the bottom of your serving dish.
- Layering: Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the soaked ladyfingers, smoothing it out evenly. Then, repeat the process with another layer of dipped ladyfingers and the remaining mascarpone mixture.
- Chill: Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight if possible. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully.
- Serve: Before serving, dust the top generously with cocoa powder. You can also garnish with chocolate shavings or fresh berries if you like.
