Ingredients
Scale
Coffee Mixture
- 1 cup brewed espresso or strong coffee (cooled)
- 1 tablespoon sugar (optional, for sweetening the coffee)
Mascarpone Cream
- 8 oz mascarpone cheese
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/3 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Additional Ingredients
- 16 ladyfinger biscuits
- 6 Kinder Bueno bars (chopped, divided)
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder (for dusting)
- 1/4 cup Nutella (softened)
- Extra Kinder Bueno pieces for topping
Instructions
- Prepare Coffee: Brew espresso or strong coffee and let it cool completely. Add sugar if desired and stir until dissolved.
- Whip the Cream: In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form, ensuring it’s light and airy.
- Mix Mascarpone: In a separate bowl, whisk together mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Combine Cream and Mascarpone: Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture, incorporating it without deflating the cream.
- Add Kinder Bueno: Fold half of the chopped Kinder Bueno bars into the mascarpone cream mixture for added texture and flavor.
- Layer Ladyfingers: Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the cooled coffee and layer them evenly in the bottom of a serving dish or individual cups.
- First Cream Layer: Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the coffee-soaked ladyfingers.
- Add Nutella Drizzle: Drizzle softened Nutella over the mascarpone layer evenly.
- Repeat Layers: Add another layer of dipped ladyfingers followed by the remaining mascarpone mixture. Smooth the top for a neat finish.
- Chill: Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight to allow flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
- Garnish and Serve: Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder and garnish with the remaining chopped Kinder Bueno and extra pieces for crunch and decoration.
Notes
- Warming Nutella slightly in the microwave for 10–15 seconds makes it easier to drizzle.
- Reserve some chopped Kinder Bueno bars for sprinkling on top to add texture and visual appeal.
- Use strong espresso for the best flavor, but strong brewed coffee works as well.
- Make sure the espresso or coffee is completely cooled to prevent ladyfingers from becoming soggy too quickly.
- Refrigerate for a minimum of 4 hours to ensure firm layers and full flavor melding.
