Ingredients
1 3/4 cups heavy whipping cream
1 cup mascarpone cheese
1/2 cup pumpkin purée
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1 1/2 cups strong brewed coffee or espresso
2 tablespoons coffee liqueur
1 package (7 oz) ladyfingers
unsweetened cocoa powder (for dusting)
Instructions
1. Brew 1.5 cups of strong coffee or espresso and allow it to cool. Mix in the coffee liqueur if using.
2. In a large bowl, beat mascarpone, pumpkin purée, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves until creamy.
3. In another bowl, whip the cold heavy cream to stiff peaks.
4. Gently fold the whipped cream into the pumpkin mixture until just combined.
5. Quickly dip ladyfingers into the cooled coffee mixture and layer them in a 9×9-inch dish.
6. Spread half the pumpkin mixture over the ladyfingers. Repeat with another layer of dipped ladyfingers and the rest of the cream.
7. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
8. Just before serving, dust with unsweetened cocoa powder and slice to serve.
Notes
For best texture and flavor, chill overnight before serving.
If you don’t have mascarpone, full-fat cream cheese is a good substitute.
Always dip the ladyfingers quickly — no soaking — to avoid a soggy base.
