Ingredients
  

1 cup strong brewed coffee, cooled

1 tablespoon coffee liqueur (optional)

2 cups mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)

1 cup heavy whipping cream

1 cup mascarpone cheese (room temperature)

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

24 ladyfinger cookies (savoiardi)

Cocoa powder for dusting

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare Coffee Mixture: In a shallow bowl, mix the cooled brewed coffee with coffee liqueur, if using. Set aside.

    Whip the Cream: In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add the granulated sugar and vanilla extract, and continue beating until stiff peaks form.

      Combine Mascarpone: In another bowl, beat the mascarpone cheese until smooth. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone cheese until well combined.

        Layer the Dessert: Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture (do not soak) and layer them at the bottom of a 9x9-inch dish. Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers.

          Add Berries: Evenly distribute half of the mixed berries on top of the mascarpone layer.

            Repeat Layers: Dip the remaining ladyfingers in the coffee mixture and layer them over the berries. Spread the remaining mascarpone mixture on top.

              Chill: Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.

                Serve: Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder and garnish with the remaining berries and fresh mint leaves.
