1
Prepare Coffee Mixture
Brew strong coffee and let it cool. If using, mix coffee liqueur into the coffee.
2
Whip Cream
In a bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Set aside.
3
Prepare Mascarpone Mixture
In another bowl, combine mascarpone cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
4
Fold in Whipped Cream
Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until fully combined.
5
Soak Ladyfingers
Dip each ladyfinger into the cooled coffee mixture for about 2 seconds, making sure not to soak them too long.
6
Layer the Dessert
In a serving dish, layer half of the soaked ladyfingers at the bottom. Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers. Repeat with remaining ladyfingers and mascarpone mixture.
7
Chill and Serve
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder.
