Directions
- Add whipping cream to a mixing bowl and beat on medium speed. Slowly add sugar and vanilla and continue to beat until stiff peaks. Add mascarpone cheese and fold in until combined. Set aside.
- Add coffee and liqueur to a shallow bowl. Dip the lady fingers in the coffee (Don’t soak them) and lay them in a single layer on the bottom of an 8×8” or similar size pan.
- Smooth half of the mascarpone mixture over the top. Add another layer of dipped lady fingers. Smooth remaining mascarpone cream over the top.
- Dust cocoa powder generously over the top . Refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours or up to overnight before serving.
TIPS
- Have cheese at room temperature
- Fold Marscapone
- Lady fingers: Don’t soak them–just quickly dip them on both sides to get them wet
- Dusting cocoa: I use a fine mesh strainer to do this
