A refreshing twist on the classic tiramisu, this Italian dessert infuses lemon flavor with a touch of Limoncello liqueur, layered between coffee-soaked ladyfingers and a rich mascarpone cream.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together egg yolks and granulated sugar until pale and creamy.
Add Limoncello and lemon zest, and mix until well combined and smooth.
Gently fold in mascarpone cheese until incorporated and set aside.
In another bowl, whip heavy cream to stiff peaks, then gently fold into the mascarpone mixture until fully combined.
Dip each ladyfinger briefly into the cooled coffee (do not soak) and layer 12 of them at the bottom of a rectangular dish, forming a base layer.
Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the first layer of ladyfingers.
Repeat with another layer of dipped ladyfingers and the remaining mascarpone mixture on top.
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours, or overnight for best results.
Before serving, dust the top with powdered sugar and garnish with fresh mint leaves.
