Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a saucepan, combine frozen raspberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice for the jam. Heat over medium, stirring until bubbling, then reduce and simmer for 23-25 minutes. Let cool.
  2. In a small saucepan, mix granulated sugar, water, and raspberries for the syrup. Bring to a gentle boil and stir until sugar dissolves. Simmer for 10 minutes, then strain and let cool.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine mascarpone, powdered sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla paste. Blend until smooth, then gradually add heavy cream until medium-stiff peaks form.
  4. Dip ladyfinger cookies in the cooled raspberry syrup, layer half in the dish, then whip in half of the mascarpone filling and half of the jam. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
  5. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight.
  6. Before serving, spread remaining raspberry jam on top and garnish with fresh raspberries and lemon slices.
