Step 3: Make the Mascarpone Filling

In a separate bowl, whisk the mascarpone cheese until smooth. Gently fold in the whipped cream, lemon zest, and optional limoncello. Mix until well combined and airy.

Step 4: Assemble the Dessert

  1. Dip the ladyfingers briefly into the limoncello syrup—just a second or two. You want them moist, not soggy.
  2. Layer the soaked ladyfingers in a dish (an 8×8 or similar-sized baking dish works well).
  3. Spread a generous layer of the mascarpone cream on top.
  4. Repeat the layers until you run out of ingredients, finishing with a layer of cream on top.

Step 5: Chill

Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours—or overnight—for the best flavor and texture.

Step 6: Garnish & Serve

Before serving, top with a sprinkle of lemon zest, a few mint leaves, or a dusting of powdered sugar or white chocolate curls. Slice and serve chilled.
