LET’S MAKE IT
The method
- 01
If using the mascarpone substitute, beat its three ingredients together until smooth and use it in place of the mascarpone.
- 02
Whip the main cream with the sugar and vanilla until it holds soft peaks. Fold in the mascarpone and optional liquor gently, just until combined.
- 03
Quickly dip ladyfingers in cooled coffee and arrange a layer in a dish. Spread with half the cream mixture, then repeat. Use a dish that fits two layers without forcing in extra biscuits or coffee.
- 04
Cover and chill for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. Dust with cocoa just before serving.
