In a shallow dish, combine amaretto liqueur and cherry juice for dipping the ladyfingers.

Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the amaretto-cherry mixture, ensuring each is moistened without becoming soggy.

Arrange a single layer of dipped ladyfingers on the base of a 23 x 33 cm baking dish. Spread half the mascarpone cherry mixture over the ladyfingers, smoothing the surface with a spatula.

Add a second layer of dipped ladyfingers, then top with the remaining mascarpone cherry mixture.

Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, for optimal texture and flavor integration.
