1/2 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons matcha powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Coffee Mixture

1 cup strong brewed coffee cooled
2 tablespoons coffee liqueur optional

For Assembly

24 pieces ladyfingers

Method

Prepare the Matcha Cream

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, matcha powder, and vanilla extract until smooth.
In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the matcha mixture until well combined.

Prepare the Coffee Mixture

In a shallow dish, combine the brewed coffee and coffee liqueur (if using).

Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture, ensuring they are soaked but not soggy.
Layer half of the soaked ladyfingers in the bottom of a 9x9 inch dish.
Spread half of the matcha cream over the ladyfingers.
Repeat with another layer of soaked ladyfingers and the remaining matcha cream.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
