Hi Augmum


here it is

Ingredients
24 sponge fingers

Syrup
1 tbsp instant espresso/ strong coffee powder
1/2 tablespoon sugar
125ml boiling water
2 tsp Baileys Irish Cream (I omitted since got kids)

Cream
250g mascarpone cheese
2 1/2 tbsp icing sugar
1 1/2 tbsp Baileys Irish Cream (I omitted)
1/2 tbsp instant espresso/ strong coffee powder
1/2 tbsp cocoa powder
200 ml non-dairy whipping cream

cocoa powder, to dust
strawberroes for decoration (optional)

Method
1.Roast the sponge fingers in the oven at 150°C for about 5 minutes (optional). Set aside for later use.

To make the cream
1.Dissolve instant coffee powder and sugar in boiling water. Leave to cool before stirring in 2 teaspoons Baileys Irish Cream. Set aside.
2.In a mixing bowl, with a manual whisk, whisk mascarpone cheese with icing sugar. Add in Baileys Irish Cream mixture (from step 1), whisk until blended.
3.With an electric mixer whisk the whipping cream until medium peak. With a spatula, fold in 1/4 of the whipped cream to the mascarpone mixture. Pour the mascarpone mixture into the whipped cream and beat it with an electric mixer to get the peak again. Leave the cream in the fridge.

To assemble
1.Cut off one end of the sponge fingers so that each one is about 3" in length. Line the sides of a 8 round pan* (with a removable base or use a springform pan) with the sponge fingers (do not get them soaked in syrup). You will need about 20 sponge fingers (depending on the type/brand). Save the leftover small pieces.
2.Place a layer of sponge fingers on the bottom of the cake pan (use the leftover to fill the gaps).
3.Using a teaspoon, pour the syrup over the layered sponge fingers, making sure you don’t put too much in one side and avoid pouring syrup to the standing sponge fingers.
4.Pour 1/2 portion of cream (I used 1/3 only though) and spread evenly on the sponge layer, ensure all the gaps at the sides are filled. Tap the cake pan lightly on the table to ensure there are no trapped air pockets.
5.Place next layer of sponge fingers over the cream, sprinkle with syrup, and place the balance cream on top. Spread and smooth the top.
6.Leave the cake (covered) to chill in the fridge overnight.
7.Just before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder and unmold. Decorate as desired. Keep the cake in the fridge before serving


Have fun…
