Elevate simple vanilla wafers into an elegant yet effortless appetizer or dessert with these Vanilla Wafers with Mascarpone and Lemon Curd Top. The crisp, delicate vanilla wafers provide the perfect base for creamy mascarpone cheese and bright, tangy lemon curd. This sophisticated three-ingredient treat delivers complex flavors and textures in just minutes, making it ideal for last-minute entertaining or satisfying sweet cravings with minimal effort.
This can be served as an appetizer or a light dessert. I got this recipe from Joe the cheese guy at O'Brien's Market in Modesto, CA! Make sure you don't get lemon-flavored vanilla wafers; they suck.
Serving Size: Serves as many as you make
Ingredients
vanilla wafers - I like Trader Joe's, but you can use any vanilla wafer or even some light vanilla-flavored crackers. The first time I had these they were with 34° Vanilla Crackers, as shown in one of the pictures.
mascarpone
lemon curd - Once again, I prefer Trader Joe's.
Directions
On each wafer, spread a little mascarpone and then top with a small dollop of lemon curd.
This can be served as an appetizer or a light desert.

💡️ Help, Cookie Policy, Privacy Policy, and Terms of Service
🙄 Help: Seriously? You don't need any help.
🌄 Why No Pictures: Well, there ARE some pictures, here and there. But to be honest, if you need pictures showing you how to stir something, you shouldn't be cooking! And really, I find them annoying when all I want to do is look at the recipe! Also, we haven't made most of these recipes. We occasionally take pictures of the finished product when we remember!
💯 Why There Are Recipe Numbers Missing: Well, it's like this. The recipe numbers are automatically generated by the database, always using a new number for a new recipe. Over the last 20 years many recipes, mostly test recipes, have been added and then deleted, leaving only their memory and their number behind. And there was also a lot of weird stuff going on in the beginning, which messed up the order. In terms of date added, the first one is #6, then #4, #9, #10, #4, #718!!!, #2, and finally #1. Just the way databases and poor programmers work!
