Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- In a large bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, whipped heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Use a hand mixer (or whisk) to whip until it forms soft peaks.
- In a shallow dish, pour in raspberry jam and a splash of water (about 2 tablespoons). Coat each ladyfinger lightly without making them soggy.
Layering
- In an 8x8-inch dish, layer soaked ladyfingers at the bottom, followed by half of the mascarpone mixture and half of the fresh raspberries.
- Add another layer of ladyfingers, the rest of the mascarpone mix, and the remaining raspberries on top.
Finishing Touches
- Dust the top with cocoa powder.
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
Notes
Feel free to adjust the amount of raspberries for your taste. Garnish with whole raspberries and a sprig of mint for an impressive presentation.
