Mascarpone cheese cream Italian way
This is a very typical easy Italian cream: mascarpone cheese cream. It is a multi-purpose sweet and easy solution for a special dessert: you can use it as a complementary cream for cakes, pies, panettone, pandora, cookies and so on. Moreover, you may add this mascarpone cheese cream to sliced fresh fruit, even better berries with vanilla ice cream.
It is commonly used for Easter desserts
Finally, you can have it by itself together with some sweet wine or dessert wine. The best dessert wines that I personally suggests are Marsala or Zibibbo, very sweet liquory wines from Sicily.
Any way you will decide to serve this mascarpone cheese cream it will be a success!
