3. Step-by-Step Instructions

Preparing the Cream

1. Whip the Cream:

• In a large bowl, pour 400 ml of cream and add 2 packets of cream stabilizer.
• Using an electric mixer, whip the cream until it forms stiff peaks.

1. Prepare the Mascarpone Mixture:

• In a separate bowl, combine 500 grams of mascarpone cheese, 2 tablespoons of hazelnut spread, and 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar.
• Beat the mixture until smooth and well combined.

1. Combine the Mixtures:

• Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture using a spatula. Be careful to maintain the airy texture of the cream.

Assembling the Dessert

1. Prepare the Biscuits:

• Dip the ladyfinger biscuits in milk quickly to soften them without making them too soggy.

1. Layer the Dessert:

• Place a layer of milk-dipped ladyfinger biscuits at the bottom of each glass.
• Spoon a layer of the mascarpone cream mixture over the biscuits and smooth it out with a spatula.

1. Repeat Layers:

• Add another layer of milk-dipped ladyfinger biscuits followed by another layer of the mascarpone cream mixture.

4. Decorating and Serving

1. Top with Hazelnut Spread:

• Melt the hazelnut spread slightly if necessary to make it easier to drizzle.
• Drizzle the melted hazelnut spread over the top layer of cream in each glass.

1. Decorate:

• Sprinkle chopped hazelnuts around the edges of each glass.
• Place a Giotto candy in the center of each dessert glass for a beautiful finishing touch.

1. Chill the Dessert:

• Allow the assembled desserts to chill in the refrigerator for at least 2-3 hours before serving. This helps the flavors meld together and gives the dessert a firm, creamy texture.

5. Tips and Tricks

• Consistency: Ensure the whipped cream is stiff enough before folding it into the mascarpone mixture to maintain a firm texture.
• Layering: Be gentle when layering to avoid crushing the ladyfinger biscuits.
• Chilling Time: The longer you chill the dessert, the better the flavors will meld together. Overnight chilling works wonders.
• Variation: You can add a layer of fruit like strawberries or raspberries between the layers for an added burst of flavor.

6. Conclusion

This Giotto Glass Dessert is a true crowd-pleaser with its rich, creamy layers and delightful hazelnut crunch. It’s easy to make yet sophisticated enough to serve at any special occasion. Give this recipe a try and let it become a favorite in your home as well. Enjoy and happy cooking!
