Mix the mascarpone, sugar, and vanilla in a bowl until smooth. Use a hand mixer if you have one, or just mix with a spatula or a hand whisk.
In another bowl, whip the cold cream until stiff peaks form. This means it should hold its shape when you lift the whisk. Should take around 2 minutes, just make sure not to over-whip.
Add the whipped cream to the mascarpone mix and whisk together until combined. Don’t mix too long or it can turn grainy or too thick like butter. Now, set this bowl aside.
Pour the coffee into a shallow bowl. Add a bit of alcohol here if you want. Dip each ladyfinger quickly (front and back) and place into your dish.
Make the layers: first the soaked ladyfingers, then half of the cream. Repeat with the rest of the ladyfingers and finish with the rest of the cream.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. Before serving, dust with cocoa powder and it’s ready to enjoy.
