Ingredients
FOR THE CREAM MIXTURE
- 1½ tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 large egg pasteurized (room temperature)* (optional)
- 1 cup mascarpone cheese (remove from the fridge 30 minutes before using)
- 1 cup cream whole, heavy or whipping cream at least 30% fat content
- 2 tablespoons Baileys Irish cream
*If you leave out the egg, then add powdered sugar instead of granulated sugar.
REMAINING INGREDIENTS
- 14-21 lady fingers (depending on how many layers you make)
- ¾-1 cup strong coffee
- 1 tablespoon Baileys Irish cream
- 2-3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa dutch processed or chocolate grated or flakes
Instructions
- In a large bowl with a hand mixer or using the whisk attachment on a stand mixer beat together the sugar and the egg (if using) until frothy, then add the mascarpone, Baileys and cream, beat until thickened.
- If you leave out the egg then beat together the mascarpone, Baileys, cream and powdered sugar until thickened.
- In a medium bowl mix the coffee and Baileys together.
- In the baking dish approximately 8x6 inches (20x15cm) place a coffee/Baileys dipped ladyfinger on the bottom, do not let the ladyfingers sit in the coffee mixture, just dip and turn once. Top with 1/3 – 1/2 of the mascarpone mixture and continue for another one-two layers, finish with the remaining mascarpone mixture.
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours or even better overnight. Just before serving sprinkle with unsweetened cocoa powder or chopped or grated chocolate.

Notes
- If you like to fancy it up, the last layer on top of the dessert you can use a piping bag with a medium/large hole tip to add the cream mixture. I actually used the back of a spoon to fancy it up a bit.
- I made two layers, my layer of filling was quite thick so I actually could have and probably should have gone with three layers. Although it was still really good with just the two layers.
- The Italian dessert should be kept in the fridge in an airtight container or well covered with plastic wrap, it will keep for 2-3 days in the fridge.
- If you prefer you can freeze it in a freezer safe container, it will keep for up to two weeks in the freezer. Let it thaw overnight in fridge before serving.
