Ingredients
US measurements with metric in parentheses.
Instructions
- Mix the coffee and liqueur in a shallow dish.
- Whip the cream, mascarpone, sugar and vanilla in a large bowl until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes.
- Quickly dip each ladyfinger in the coffee, about 1 second per side, and arrange a layer in an 8-inch (20 cm) square dish.
- Spread half the cream over the layer. Repeat with another layer of dipped biscuits and the remaining cream.
- Dust with cocoa. Cover and chill at least 6 hours or overnight.
Tips for success
- Dip fast; soggy biscuits ruin the texture.
- Use cold mascarpone and cream so the filling whips smoothly.
Substitutions
- Skip the liqueur, or use decaf coffee for kids.
- Use a dairy-free mascarpone alternative.
Storage & reheating
