Prepare the Panettone

Start by carefully removing the top of your panettone. Hollow out the inside, leaving about a 2 cm border around the edges and bottom (1). Cut the removed bread into small cubes and set aside.

Create the Mascarpone Filling

In a large bowl, combine mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, and your choice of liqueur (Marsala, rum, or cognac). Mix until smooth and creamy. For a non-alcoholic version, substitute the liqueur with orange syrup. Gently fold the panettone cubes into the mascarpone mixture (2).

Assemble Your Dessert

Spoon this delicious filling back into the hollowed-out panettone, using your hands or a spoon to ensure it’s evenly distributed (3). Replace the top, and your indulgent treat is ready to serve!

Chill and Serve

For best results, refrigerate your filled Panettone for at least two hours before serving (4).

This will help the filling set and make it easier to slice. When ready, cut into wedges and enjoy your perfectly assembled mascarpone filled Panettone!

How to Store the Mascarpone Filled Panettone

Store the Mascarpone Filled Panettone in the refrigerator, covered with plastic wrap, for up to 3 days. Remove it from the refrigerator and allow it to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving. Freezing the stuffed Panettone is not recommended, as it may compromise the texture and flavor of the delicate bread.
