Ingredients

  • mascarpone — 125g
  • double cream — 100ml
  • caster sugar — 25g
  • strong espresso coffee, cooled — 60ml
  • savoiardi biscuits (ladyfingers) — 6 biscuits
  • cocoa powder — 1 tbsp

Method

  1. 1

    In a medium bowl, whisk the mascarpone, double cream, and caster sugar together until the mixture reaches a thick, whipped consistency with soft peaks.

  2. 2

    Pour the cooled espresso into a shallow bowl.

  3. 3

    Quickly dip 3 savoiardi biscuits into the espresso for 1 second each to avoid them getting too soggy, then break them in half to fit the base of each glass.

  4. 4

    Add a layer of the mascarpone cream mixture over the biscuit base in each glass.

  5. 5

    Repeat the layer with the remaining biscuits and the remaining cream mixture.

  6. 6

    Dust the tops generously with cocoa powder using a fine sieve.

  7. 7

    Serve immediately or chill for 30 minutes to allow the flavours to develop.

Why this works

The bitterness of the dark espresso cuts perfectly through the rich, buttery mascarpone cream, while the light crunch of the savoiardi biscuits provides the necessary texture contrast against the velvet-smooth filling.
