Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whip heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually fold in mascarpone cheese until smooth and creamy.
  2. Gently incorporate amaretto liqueur, cherry juice, and vanilla extract into the cream mixture until well combined.
  3. Mix sugar and cherry preserves in a separate bowl, then fold into cream mixture until slightly thickened.
  4. Chop fresh cherries and carefully fold them into the cream mixture.
  5. In a shallow dish, mix amaretto liqueur and cherry juice for dipping ladyfingers.
  6. Quickly dip each ladyfinger in the amaretto-cherry juice mixture, ensuring they are soaked only for a second.
  7. In a baking dish, create a layer of half the dipped ladyfingers, then spoon half of the cream mixture over them.
  8. Add another layer of remaining dipped ladyfingers on top, followed by the rest of the cream mixture.
  9. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
  10. Before serving, dust with cocoa powder and sprinkle with shaved dark chocolate.
