Ingredients

  • 3 teaspoons lemon zest
  • 1/2 cup lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 16 ounces mascarpone softened
  • 3.4 ounce lemon jello pudding
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 7 ounces ladyfingers
  • 6 ounces blueberries

Instructions

  • Zest the lemons and then juice the lemons.
  • In a shallow bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup lemon juice with 2 tablespoons sugar until sugar is dissolved. Set aside.
  • Add heavy whipping cream to a mixer bowl. Beat at medium-low speed until it starts to thicken, raise to high speed and continue to beat until stiff peaks form.
  • Pour whipped cream into another bowl and set aside.
  • Add softened mascarpone to the mixer bowl with 2 teaspoons lemon zest, instant pudding mix and milk.
  • Beat at low speed until combined, raise to medium speed and beat for 2 minutes.
  • Fold in whipped cream.
  • Next, get an 8 x 8 inch baking dish.
  • Dip ladyfingers on both sides into lemon juice mixture. Do not soak the ladyfingers, just a quick dip.
  • Fill the bottom of the baking dish with the ladyfingers, breaking the ladyfingers if needed to make a single layer.
  • Spoon half of the filling over the ladyfingers.
  • Sprinkle half of the blueberries over the filling.
  • Repeat the layers ending with the blueberries and the remaining teaspoon of lemon zest.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 24 hours before slicing and serving.

Notes

Storage: Keep refrigerated up to 4 days. Best if served after 24 hours, even better the next day, so this is a great make ahead dessert.
Occasions: Easter, summer barbecues, potlucks, special occasions.
