Ricetta Zuppa inglese reggiana

mascarpone cheese

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: cream cheese

Greek yogurt lowers calories while maintaining creaminess.

ladyfingers

🥗Healthier: sponge cake

💰Cheaper: pound cake

Sponge cake is lighter and cheaper than specialty ladyfingers.

dark chocolate

🥗Healthier: cacao nibs

💰Cheaper: chocolate chips

Cacao nibs are healthier, while chocolate chips are easier to find.

rum

🥗Healthier: vanilla extract

💰Cheaper: coffee liqueur

Vanilla extract provides flavor without alcohol.

Brew coffee and let it cool to room temperature.

Whisk eggs and sugar in a bowl until pale and fluffy.

Fold in mascarpone cheese until smooth and creamy.

Dip ladyfingers briefly in coffee, ensuring they are soaked but not soggy.

Layer soaked ladyfingers in the bottom of a trifle dish.

Spread a layer of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers.

Sprinkle cocoa powder over the mascarpone layer.

Repeat the layering process until ingredients are used up, finishing with mascarpone on top.

Chill the trifle in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

Before serving, garnish with whipped cream and chocolate shavings.

Add orange zest for a fresh touch, if desired.
