• 1 pack of Amaretto di Matilde cookies
• 8,80 oz mascarpone
• 4,40 oz fresh cream
• 2,45 oz icing sugar
• 3 tablespoons of Grand Marnier

1. Whisk mascarpone with Grand Marnier, then add 12 Amaretti biscuits crumbled finely.

3. Blend the persimmons in a different container.
4. At this point, prepare a base of coarsely crumbled Amaretti biscuits on the bottom of the mini-glasses, cover it with a layer of mascarpone cream and a layer of persimmon cream.
5. Garnish with a knob of mascarpone cream and one Amaretto biscuit.
