Servings: 6
Ingredients
Cream Mixture
- 1 3/4 cups heavy whipping cream
- 3 large egg yolks
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 cups mascarpone cheese
- 3/4 cup eggnog
- 1 tsp vanilla extract for added flavor
Assembly
- 30 gingerbread cookies or store-bought if preferred
- 1/2 cup strong brewed coffee cooled
- 1 tsp dark rum extract
- Ground cinnamon for dusting
- Crushed gingerbread cookies for garnish
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Using an electric mixer, whip the heavy whipping cream in a large bowl until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
- In another bowl, whisk the egg yolks with powdered sugar until thick and pale in color. Then, gently incorporate the mascarpone cheese until smooth.
- Fold the whipped cream into the egg yolk mixture gently until no streaks remain.
- Combine the cooled coffee, dark rum extract, and eggnog in a shallow dish. Dip each gingerbread cookie quickly into this mixture before arranging them in a deep baking dish.
- Layer dipped cookies in the bottom of the dish followed by a generous layer of cream mixture. Repeat the process until all ingredients are used, finishing with the cream on top.
- Sprinkle ground cinnamon over the top layer. Optionally, add crushed gingerbread for a decorative touch.
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
- Serve chilled, scooping out portions to reveal the delightful layers of gingerbread and creamy filling.
Notes
For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a hint of nutmeg in the cream mixture. This dessert can be made a day ahead, making it perfect for gatherings!
