- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 package ladyfingers
- 8 ounces mascarpone cheese, softened
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon real vanilla extract

Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Stir gently and let sit for about 15 minutes to allow the berries to release their juices.

- Fold the mascarpone cheese into the whipped cream mixture until smooth and creamy.
- Arrange a layer of ladyfingers in the bottom of a serving dish or trifle bowl.
- Spoon a layer of the berry mixture over the ladyfingers, allowing some of the juices to soak into the cookies.
- Spread a layer of the mascarpone whipped cream mixture over the berries.
- Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with whipped cream and berries on top.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to come together.
