Method
 

  1. Combine raspberries, sugar, water, and lemon juice in a saucepan. Simmer 5-7 mins until broken down.

  5. Beat mascarpone until smooth. Mix in melted white chocolate and 2-3 tbsp of the raspberry soak for color.
  6. Gently fold whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture.
  7. Quickly dip ladyfingers into remaining raspberry soak and layer in dish.
  8. Spread half the cream over cookies. Repeat with a second layer of dipped cookies and remaining cream.

Notes

Ensure white chocolate is cool before adding to mascarpone to prevent curdling.
