Date: 31 Mar 1994 01:18:12 -0500 Beat Mascarpone and sugar until light. Blend in wine and vanilla. Fold in whipped cream. In a small bowl or measuring cup, combine coffee and liqueur. To assemble, split each ladyfinger in half, dip in coffee, liqueur mixture and layer bottom of glass (9 x 13) dish. Top with half the cheese mixture and half the heath bits; repeat layers ending with Heath Bits.

Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving; overnight is better.

Serves 8 generously.

You can substitute cream cheese for the Mascarpone (it isn't as good though); and you can use Amaretto or Kaluha in place of the Tuca. Some of my friends substitute brandy. that's a little strong for my taste, but feel free to experiment!
