Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups mascarpone cheese
  • 4 tablespoons Grand Marnier
  • 1/2 cup icing sugar
  • 2 teaspoons powdered ginger
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 Limoneira® oranges zest & juice
  • 18 ladyfinger cookies
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder

Instructions
 

  • Add the mascarpone, ginger, and 2 tablespoons of the Grand Marnier to a large bowl, and beat until the texture is smooth.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the cream together with the sugar until stiff peaks form.
  • Add the whipped cream to the mascarpone about a third at a time, carefully folding in each addition until well blended.
  • Add the orange zest to the mixture, folding it in to retain the smooth texture.
  • In a small bowl, measure the remaining Grand Marnier and the orange juice.
  • One by one, soak the ladyfingers in the orange juice mixture.
  • Cover the bottom of a glass baking dish with a single layer of soaked ladyfingers.
  • Use a spatula to layer half the whipped mixture over the ladyfingers.
  • Repeat the layers to use up the remaining cream.
  • Sift the cocoa powder on top as a garnish.
  • Cover and refrigerate for about 5 hours.
  • It can keep in the fridge for about 2 days.

Notes

Note: The number of ladyfinger cookies is approximate. There should be enough for two layers in your baking or glass dish.
