Refreshing Berry Delight in Layers

Ingredients:

  • For the Berry Layer:
    • 2 cups mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
    • 2 tablespoons sugar
    • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • For the Mascarpone Layer:
    • 8 oz mascarpone cheese
    • 1 cup heavy cream
    • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 1/4 cup brewed espresso or strong coffee (cooled)
  • For Assembly:
    • 12 ladyfinger cookies
    • Cocoa powder (for dusting)

Directions:

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the mixed berries, sugar, and lemon juice. Toss gently and let sit for about 15 minutes to macerate.
  2. In another bowl, beat the mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
  3. Dip each ladyfinger quickly into the cooled espresso, being careful not to soak them.
  4. In a trifle dish or individual glasses, start layering: place a layer of dipped ladyfingers at the bottom, followed by a layer of mascarpone mixture, then a layer of macerated berries. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of mascarpone.
  5. Dust the top with cocoa powder. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to let the flavors meld.
  6. Serve chilled, garnished with additional berries if desired.
