Method
Prepare the Cream Mixture
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract.

Prepare the Coffee Mixture

- Arrange a layer of soaked ladyfingers in the bottom of a 9x13 inch dish.
- Spread half of the mascarpone cream mixture over the ladyfingers.
- Repeat with another layer of soaked ladyfingers followed by the remaining mascarpone mixture.
Refrigerate
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
Prepare the Topping
