Instructions

  1. Begin by crushing the whole wheat biscuits into delightful crumbs. Place these crumbs into serving bowls, ensuring an even distribution.

  2. To make squeezing the lemons easier, wrap them gently. Proceed to combine 1 tablespoon of lemon peel and squeeze a total of 60 ml of lemon juice from the wrapped lemons.

  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 70 ml of whipping cream, 1/2 cup of mascarpone cheese, 1 cup of sweetened condensed milk, 60 ml of lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and the aforementioned tablespoon of lemon peel. Whisk until the mixture forms soft peaks, creating a velvety texture.

  4. Spoon the creamy mixture onto the biscuit base, filling each bowl to the brim. Use a knife to smooth the edges, ensuring a tidy presentation.

  5. Clean any excess cream from the edges and place the bowls in the refrigerator for at least an hour. This will allow the dessert to set and develop its delightful flavors.

  6. In a separate large bowl, whip 60 ml of whipping cream until soft peaks form. Transfer this whipped cream to a piping bag fitted with a fancy nozzle.

  7. Once the dessert has chilled and set, remove it from the refrigerator. Decoratively spread the whipped cream on top of each dessert, adding a touch of elegance to your creation. Sprinkle a delightful amount of lemon peel on each dessert for an enticing finishing touch.

  8. Return the completed sweets to the refrigerator for another two hours. This will solidify the dessert, enhancing its texture and ensuring a delightful dining experience.

  9. Your Lemon Mascarpone Dessert is now ready to be savored and enjoyed. I hope this recipe brings you immense culinary satisfaction.
