Ingredients

9 oz mascarpone
1 cup heavy cream
2/3 cup powdered sugar
1.4 oz limoncello (for the cream)
7 oz ladyfingers
1 cup milk
2 oz limoncello (for the soak)

Tools

Electric whisks
2 Bowls
Plate slate

Steps

In a bowl, whip the cream with the powdered sugar. I recommend using electric whisks for this operation.
Add the mascarpone and continue mixing until a smooth cream is obtained.
Add the limoncello and mix quickly. Transfer the cream obtained into a piping bag and set aside.
In another bowl, prepare the soak by mixing the milk and limoncello. You can increase or decrease the amount of liqueur according to your taste.
At this point, you can decide whether to prepare the classic tiramisu in a baking dish or lovely compositions on a slate plate.
In either case, soak the ladyfingers in the soak and place them on the plate.
Spread a layer of cream and repeat the operation to form a second layer of cookies and cream.
Finish the preparation by decorating our tiramisu with grated lemon zest.
Let it rest in the fridge for about an hour to allow the flavors to blend.
Serve our dessert accompanied by a glass of fresh limoncello.
