# What You'll Need:
→ Mascarpone Cream
01 -
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
02 -
1/3 cup white sugar
03 -
1 cup heavy cream
04 -
1 cup mascarpone cheese
→ Coffee Soaking Mixture
05 -
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
06 -
2 tablespoons coffee liqueur (if you want)
07 -
1 cup strong espresso or super strong coffee
→ Assembly
08 -
12 ladyfingers
# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 -
Use a spatula to mix mascarpone and sugar in a big bowl. Gently just mix until the sugar disappears.
02 -
Grab another bowl and whip heavy cream with vanilla. When it looks fluffy and soft, stop.
03 -
Carefully fold that whipped cream into the mascarpone and sugar. Don’t overmix, just till it’s smooth.
04 -
Pour brewed espresso into a bowl with the sugar. Let it cool down, add coffee liqueur if you want. Mix until dissolved and let it hit room temp.
05 -
Give each ladyfinger a dunk in the coffee, but just for a sec. You want them soaked, not soggy.
06 -
Drop a layer of coffee-soaked ladyfingers into your dessert cups first.
07 -
Spoon on a thick layer of mascarpone mix over those ladyfingers in every cup.
08 -
Go again with another round of soaked ladyfingers and cream. The top layer should be all that dreamy cream.
09 -
Pop the filled cups in the fridge for at least 4 hours. That way, all the good flavors mix together.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
If you want to skip booze, just use more vanilla or leave the liqueur out.
02 -
Need it dairy-free? Swap in coconut cream for mascarpone and use coconut milk or soy for cream.
