  • 1/2 cup strong brewed coffee, room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon coffee-flavored liqueur (such as Kahlua)
  • 1 (3 ounce) package ladyfinger cookies
  • 1 (8 ounce) container mascarpone cheese
  • 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 2 tablespoons coffee-flavored liqueur
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream

  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time until well blended.
  4. Pour the mixture into the prepared crust and bake for 25 to 30 minutes.
  5. Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until fully chilled.
  6. Combine brewed coffee and 1 tablespoon coffee liqueur in a shallow dish.
  7. Dip ladyfingers briefly in the coffee mixture and layer over the cooled cheesecake.
  8. In another bowl, blend mascarpone cheese, confectioners' sugar, and 2 tablespoons liqueur.

Notes

For best results, let the cheesecake chill overnight. You can substitute mascarpone with a blend of cream cheese and heavy cream if unavailable.
