Ingredients
Coffee Soak:
- 1 cup strong brewed coffee (or espresso), cooled
- 2 tbsp coffee liqueur (optional, e.g. Kahlúa)
Cream Filling:
- 12–15 ladyfinger biscuits (savoiardi), broken to fit cup size
- 8 oz mascarpone cheese (softened)
- 1 cup heavy cream, cold
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
For Serving:
- Unsweetened cocoa powder (for dusting)
- Chocolate shavings or coffee beans (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
- Prepare coffee soak: In a shallow dish, mix cooled coffee with liqueur (if using).
- Make cream filling: Beat heavy cream until soft peaks form. In another bowl, mix mascarpone, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Gently fold whipped cream into mascarpone mixture until creamy.
- Assemble cups: Dip ladyfingers briefly into the coffee mixture (don’t oversoak). Layer the bottom of each cup with coffee-soaked ladyfingers. Add a layer of mascarpone cream. Repeat layers until cups are filled, finishing with cream.
- Chill: Refrigerate for at least 2–4 hours (or overnight) for flavors to develop.
- Serve: Dust with cocoa powder before serving. Garnish with chocolate shavings or a coffee bean on top.
