Instructions

Prepare strong espresso and let cool completely, then stir in pistachio liqueur, coffee liqueur, and sugar.

In large bowl, whisk egg yolks and granulated sugar until pale yellow and thick ribbons form.

Add mascarpone cheese to egg mixture and beat until smooth and well combined with no lumps.

Fold in ground pistachios, pistachio paste, vanilla extract, and almond extract until evenly distributed.

In separate bowl, whip heavy cream to soft peaks, being careful not to overwhip the cream.

Gently fold whipped cream into mascarpone mixture in thirds until just combined and smooth throughout.

Quickly dip each ladyfinger cookie into coffee mixture, ensuring both sides are soaked but not soggy.

Arrange soaked ladyfingers in single layer in bottom of 9x13 inch dish or large trifle bowl.

Spread half of pistachio mascarpone cream evenly over first layer of ladyfinger cookies.

Sprinkle half of chopped pistachios over cream layer for added texture and visual appeal.

Repeat with second layer of coffee-soaked ladyfingers, remaining cream, and remaining chopped pistachios.

Cover tightly with plastic wrap, ensuring wrap doesn't touch surface of final cream layer.

Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight to allow flavors to meld and set properly.

Before serving, dust top evenly with cocoa powder using fine-mesh sieve for professional appearance.

Garnish with whole pistachios, chocolate shavings, and light dusting of powdered sugar if desired.

Cut into squares or spoon into individual serving dishes for elegant presentation at the table.

Serve chilled with small spoons and perhaps a drizzle of pistachio liqueur for extra indulgence.

Enjoy this nutty, creamy masterpiece that perfectly balances coffee, pistachio, and mascarpone flavors!
