  • 2 tbsp rum (optional)

  7. Stir chocolate into the cream mixture; add rum if using.
  8. Dip ladyfinger biscuits quickly into cooled coffee.
  9. Layer dipped biscuits at the bottom of your serving dish.
  10. Spoon a layer of chocolate mascarpone cream over the biscuits.
  11. Repeat layering with biscuits and cream, ending with a cream layer on top.
  12. Dust the top with cocoa powder.
  13. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
  14. Decorate with black cherries before serving.

Notes

Use fresh eggs to ensure the best whipped whites. Always let your coffee cool before using to prevent melting the cream. For a child-friendly version, substitute coffee with a milk and cocoa mixture and omit the rum. The dessert benefits from extra chilling time, allowing flavors to blend beautifully. This recipe is also forgiving; feel free to mix and match with different fruits or chocolates based on your preference!
