Preparation Directions
Prepare the Mascarpone Mixture
In a large bowl, whisk together the mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Prepare the Coffee Mixture
In a shallow dish, combine the brewed and cooled espresso with the coffee liqueur (if using).
Dip Ladyfingers
Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture, ensuring they're soaked but not soggy.
Layer the Ingredients
In a rectangular dish, layer half of the soaked ladyfingers at the bottom. Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers. Repeat with another layer of soaked ladyfingers and the remaining mascarpone mixture.
Chill
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
