Ingredients

  • 24 Pavesini cookies (lady fingers) approximately 2 inches long
  • 1/4 cup Nutella
  • 1/4 cup mascarpone cheese at room temperature
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut sweetened or unsweetened

Instructions

  • Pour milk in a bowl and shredded coconut in a second dish.
  • Spread Nutella on a Pavesini cookie, spread mascarpone on a second Pavesini. Press together to form a sandwich.
  • Dip both sides in the milk, then dredge in the shredded coconut.
  • Refrigerate for about half an hour before serving.

Notes

  • If you're serving them to children, allergies to nuts may be a concern. However, you can easily find nut-free chocolate spreads in most grocery stores.
  • The Pavesini may be dipped in a combination of milk and espresso coffee.  Allow the coffee/milk mixture to cool before dipping the cookies.
  • Instead of coconut flakes, dredge the bites in finely chopped nuts of your choice.  
  • If desired dust lightly with cocoa powder for a lovely presentation and extra chocolate flavor. 
  • Keep leftovers refrigerated for up to 3 days.
  • Please note that the nutritional information provided is approximate and may vary according to exact ingredients used and portion size.
