Ingredients

8 servings

250 g Mascarpone cheese cold
100 g Icing (powdered) sugar
2 tsp Matcha powder sifted, plus 1 tsp to dust

Method

Whisk the mascarpone, sugar, vanilla and sifted matcha until smooth.
In another bowl, whip the cream to soft peaks. Fold it gently into the mascarpone mixture.
Mix the milk with the vanilla. Dip each ladyfinger into it for 1 second, then arrange them in a 2-litre (8 by 8 inch) dish.
Spread half the matcha cream over the biscuits. Repeat the layers.
Cover and chill for at least 6 hours.
Dust with the remaining matcha just before serving.
