Ingredients
12 savoiardi ladyfingers (≈100 g), finely crushed
⅓ cup mascarpone cheese (≈85 g), softened
3 tablespoons strong brewed espresso, cooled
3 teaspoons powdered sugar, sifted
Cocoa powder for dusting
Instructions
Brew espresso and allow it to cool completely.
Crush ladyfingers into fine crumbs using a food processor or rolling pin.
In a mixing bowl, combine mascarpone cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Stir in cooled espresso until the mixture is creamy.
Fold in the crushed ladyfingers and mix until a thick dough-like consistency forms.
Using a teaspoon or small scoop, form the mixture into small bite-sized balls and arrange on a tray.
Refrigerate for 1 hour to firm up.
Once chilled, roll each ball in cocoa powder to coat. Serve immediately or keep chilled until ready to enjoy.
