  • Add the cream and whip. Use a hand whisk, stand mixer, or hand mixer. With a mixer, whip on high speed for about 1 minute until stiff peaks. Do not overwhip or it will turn grainy.

  • Dip the ladyfingers. Pour the cooled coffee into a shallow bowl. Dip each ladyfinger top and bottom very quickly so they do not get soggy.

  • Layer. Add one layer of ladyfingers to your dish. Spread half of the cream over the top. Add a second layer of ladyfingers. Finish with the remaining cream.
    Chill. Smooth the surface, cover with cling film, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. For serving the next day, keep it chilled until you are ready.
    Dust with cocoa powder. I mix cocoa with a little ginger and cinnamon, then dust. Add whipped cream and a gingerbread cookie on top.
