Method

01
Beat your whipping/double cream, sugar, and vanilla until soft peaks form.
02
Add in your mascarpone cheese and amaretto (if using) and continue to whip to stiff peaks.
03
Dip your ladyfingers in the coffee (and brandy if using) and place in an 8×8 pan to make the first layer – you can fit about 7 cookies in each layer. Don't let them soak as the will fall apart, just a quick dunk in the coffee is enough.
04
Spread half of the whipped cream mixture on top of the first layer of ladyfingers. Repeat process with the second layer of ladyfingers and cream mixture, you can also do a single layer if you want a thick layer as pictured.
05
Dust the top of dessert with beetroot powder using a sieve. Refrigerate for about 2-4 hours (it gets even better in the fridge and is a perfect make-ahead dessert).
