An easy way to transform a beloved holiday cake into something SUPER delcious .
Prep Time15 minutes

Total Time20 minutes
Course: Dessert
Cuisine: Italian
Keyword: dessert, holiday
Servings: 8 people

Ingredients

  • 1 panettone
  • 6 eggs white and yolks separated
  • About 1-1.5 cups of brewed espresso
  • 2 shots of Cointreau (or any orange liquor — or whatever you like .. Marsala wine
  • 16 oz mascarpone cheese
  • 6 tbsp sugar
  • Optional Cranberries dusted in sugar & powdered sugar for garnish

Instructions

  • Prepare all of your coffee (I recommend a Moka pot), in batches and allow to cool down. Then add in the liquor.
  • Beat all of the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peak form (about 5 min). Set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the yolks and sugar until pale yellow and light. Add in the mascarpone cheese and continue to mix until well incorporated.
  • In batches, fold in the egg whites to the yolk mix until creamy smooth mixture.
  • Put the panettone onto its side and slice into 3 even pieces.
  • Quickly* dip the bottom piece of panettone into the coffee mixture on both sides. Allow excess coffee to drip down. Place on the bottom of your serving plate. Add about 1/3 of the cream over the top. Repeat with the second and third layers. **For the top layer, I like gently brush the top side rather than dunk it so it doesn’t absorb too much. Also, only add the cream to the center on the top layer.
  • Garnish with cranberries and powdered sugar.
  • Chill in the fridge overnight if you can - if not you can also serve immediately.

Notes

For cranberries, add a few in a small bowl with a dash of water. Add a table spoon of sugar and mix well to coat. Lay out on a dish to dry.
