- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup passion fruit juice (fresh or bottled)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup mascarpone cheese
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 24 ladyfingers
- Cocoa powder for dusting
- Fresh passion fruit pulp for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Coffee Mixture: In a bowl, mix the cooled coffee with sugar and passion fruit juice until the sugar dissolves.
- Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, beat the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold in the mascarpone cheese and vanilla extract until well combined.
