  • Whisk together the remaining limoncello with the sugar and mascarpone until light and fluffy. Spread gently and evenly over the blackberries in the bowl.

This trifle was a huge disappointment. The flavors didn't go well together and the texture was off.

I made this trifle and it was a disaster! The mascarpone cheese didn't whip properly and the whole thing was a mess.

I was hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a fan of limoncello, but I'm so glad I did! The mascarpone cheese balanced out the sweetness of the blackberries and limoncello perfectly.
