The way the recipe is written, I would rate it 4 stars. I had to reduce the sugar and whipping cream somewhat b/c the mascarpone cheese came in 8 oz containers, so I used 1 cup sugar and 1 cup whipping cream. In my opinion, espresso should be incorporated into this recipe. I made 4 cups of espresso (using espresso cup measurements). In the espresso, I mixed 1 tablespoon of Ameretto liquor and a couple teaspoons of sugar (you could taste it to make sure it's not too bitter, but you still want to maintain a stronger coffee flavor). I poured the espresso mixture into a square pyrex-like baking dish. I dipped both sides of the ladyfinger (Balocca Savoiardi brand) cookies into the espresso mixture and lined them up in a Springform pan.
