Brew the espresso, then let it cool and mix it with the amaretto. Place the mascarpone in a bowl, mix with the milk, lemon zest, sugar, and vanilla sugar until creamy. Line the bottom of a small square dish with a layer of sponge fingers and drizzle with the espresso mixture. This is best done with a spoon, as it ensures a more even spread. Then add some of the cream, followed by another layer of sponge fingers, espresso, cream, and so on, until all the sponge fingers are used up. Depending on the size of the dish, you will need 2 to 3 layers. Of course, you should end with a layer of cream. Finally, mix the cocoa powder with the cinnamon and strain it through a small sieve onto the cream. Now let it all sit, ideally overnight, but for at least 8 hours. Then enjoy!
