Instructions
Make the Yogurt Cream
Beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together in a large bowl until smooth and fluffy. Fold in the Greek yogurt and vanilla extract until fully combined and creamy with no lumps.
Prepare the Espresso Soak
Combine the cooled brewed espresso and coffee liqueur in a shallow bowl or dish wide enough to dip the ladyfingers. Stir to combine and set aside.
Layer the Ladyfingers
Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the espresso mixture for about 2 seconds per side so they absorb flavor without becoming soggy. Arrange a single layer of soaked ladyfingers in the bottom of an 8x8 inch baking dish.
Add the Cream and Repeat
Spread half of the yogurt cream mixture evenly over the ladyfinger layer. Repeat with a second layer of soaked ladyfingers followed by the remaining yogurt cream spread smooth on top.
Dust and Chill
Sift the unsweetened cocoa powder evenly over the top layer of cream. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the layers to set and flavors to meld.
