  1. In a mixing bowl, combine mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat on medium speed for 3-5 minutes until smooth and fluffy.
  2. Brew strong coffee and allow it to cool slightly. Dip each ladyfinger in the brewed coffee for 1-2 seconds.
  3. Place a layer of dipped ladyfingers at the bottom of each serving cup, pressing them down gently.
  4. Spoon a layer of creamy mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers, smoothing it out with a spatula.
  5. Repeat the process with another layer of soaked ladyfingers and then another layer of mascarpone mixture, finishing with the cream.
  6. Dust the top layer of mascarpone with cocoa powder using a fine mesh strainer.
  7. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving.
