Ingredients

1 cup seedless raspberry jam
6 tablespoons orange liqueur (recommended: Grand Marnier)
1 pound mascarpone cheese, at room temperature
1 cup whipping cream
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
28 soft ladyfingers or 2 (12-ounce) pound cakes, cut into 3 by 1 by 1 1/2-inch pieces
3 (1/2 dry pint) baskets fresh raspberries (about 3 3/4 cups total)
Confectioners' sugar, for serving

Directions

Stir the jam and 4 tablespoons of the orange liqueur in a small bowl to blend.

Combine the mascarpone and remaining 2 tablespoons of orange liqueur in a large bowl to blend. Using an electric mixer, beat the cream, sugar, and vanilla in another large bowl until soft peaks form. Using a large rubber spatula, stir 1/4 of the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture to lighten. Fold the remaining whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture.

Line the bottom of a13 by 9 by 2-inch glass baking dish or other decorative serving dish with half of the ladyfingers. Spread half of the jam mixture over the ladyfingers. Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the jam mixture, then cover with half of the fresh raspberries. Repeat layering with the remaining ladyfingers, jam mixture, mascarpone mixture and raspberries. Cover and refrigerate at least 3 hours or overnight.

Dust with the confectioners' sugar and serve.

Show-stopping deliciousness
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I served this is a trifle dish so all the layers could be viewed by my family. The smell of the liqueur and the coolness of... the mascarpone cheese were the best part. I'm making it again for a younger cousin's birthday, but substituting grated orange peel for the grand marnier. Can't wait to see how it turns out!Read more

A Perfect Ending
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

We entertained 13 guests for New Year's Eve and served a five-course Italian meal. This dessert was a FABULOUS ending to a... perfect meal. Two of the male guests ate two pieces. I doubled the recipe for an 11x14" pan. For the pound cake base I made Paula Dean's Pound Cake; another great recipe. I made the dessert one day in advance so the flavors would blend. I used homemade raspberry jam that my mother made. WOW!! What a tasty dessert. I look forward to making it again this summer when I can use fresh raspberries from my mother's garden.Read more

Forget the pound cake!
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

Didn't have ladyfingers. As the recipe suggested and reviewers supported, I used frozen pound cake. The result was way to... dense..the cake absorbed NONE of the flavors. If I had to use pound cake, I would cut it in very skinny slices; no more than 1/4 inch thick..but highly recommend that ladyfingers (or maybe fresh sponge cake) be used.Read more

Best Dessert Ever

Was one of the best desserts ever. I couldn't find soft lady fingers so used the frozen pound cake. Can't imagine it any... better. Have shared it with many friends with the same results Read more

non-alcoholic version
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This sounds so delicious, and I would love to try it. Has anyone made this without the alcohol? How about using orange... juice instead? Anyfeedback would be appreciated!Read more
