For a more intense coffee flavor, brush the cake layers with an extra shot of espresso. Ensure the mascarpone cheese is at room temperature for a smooth and lump-free filling. Sifting the cocoa powder ensures a light and even dusting over the cake. Feel free to experiment with different liqueurs such as amaretto or coffee liqueur for a unique twist.
