How to Make Blueberry Tiramisu Trifle:
1. Prepare the Blueberry Layer:
- In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the blueberries, sugar, water, and lemon juice.

- Remove from heat, stir in lemon zest (if using), and let cool completely.
2. Make the Mascarpone Cream:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until fully combined.
3. Assemble the Trifle:
- Dip the ladyfingers briefly into coffee or milk (if using) and arrange a layer in the bottom of a trifle dish.
- Spread a layer of the mascarpone cream over the ladyfingers.
- Spoon a layer of the blueberry mixture over the cream.
- Repeat the layers, finishing with a layer of mascarpone cream on top.
4. Garnish and Chill:
- Top with fresh blueberries and mint leaves for garnish if desired.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to let the flavors meld.
