Ingredients
  

Espresso Soak:

  • ¾ cup strong brewed coffee cooled
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Cashew Mascarpone Filling:

  • 1 ½ cups raw cashews soaked 4 hours or overnight
  • ½ cup coconut cream
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • Pinch of sea salt

Dark Chocolate Ganache:

  • ¾ cup chopped vegan dark chocolate
  • ¼ cup plant milk
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • Assembly:
  • 24 vegan ladyfinger cookies or crisp biscotti-style fingers
  • Unsweetened cocoa powder for dusting

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the cashew mascarpone: Blend soaked cashews, coconut cream, syrup, lemon juice, vanilla, and salt until smooth. Chill it.
  • Make the ganache: Melt chocolate, plant milk, and coconut oil together until silky. Stir like you're in a French film.
  • Mix the espresso soak: Combine brewed coffee, maple syrup, and vanilla. Try not to drink it all.
  • Assemble layer one: Dip cookies quickly in espresso mix. Line them neatly in the baking dish.
  • Spread half the mascarpone mixture: Smooth it out like your favorite under-eye concealer.
  • Drizzle ganache: Let it casually fall over the mascarpone layer. Like drama—intentional but elegant.
  • Repeat layers: Espresso cookies, mascarpone, ganache. Your masterpiece is forming.
  • Chill for at least 3–4 hours: Resist checking every 10 minutes.
  • Before serving: Dust with cocoa powder like you’re blessing it. Serve cold. Accept applause.
