In a mixing bowl, combine the whipping cream and powdered sugar. Use a hand mixer or stand mixer to whip the cream until stiff peaks form.
Fold in the mascarpone cheese, Amaretto liqueur, and vanilla extract gently using a spatula until the mixture is smooth and well-combined. Set this cream mixture aside.
In a shallow bowl, combine the milk and 1 tablespoon of Amaretto liqueur. This will be used to quickly dip the chocolate chip cookies.
Take a serving dish or 6 individual dessert glasses. Begin layering the dessert by quickly dipping chocolate chip cookies into the milk-Amaretto mixture (do not soak them) and arranging them as the first layer.
Spread a layer of the mascarpone cream mixture evenly over the cookies.
Sprinkle a light layer of dark chocolate shavings or chips on top of the cream.
Repeat the layers (cookies, cream, chocolate shavings) until the serving dish or glasses are filled, finishing with a top layer of mascarpone cream.
Dust the top layer with a light sprinkle of unsweetened cocoa powder and garnish with a few extra chocolate shavings for decoration.
Refrigerate the dessert for at least 2 hours to let the flavors meld together and the cookies soften.
Serve chilled and enjoy this luxurious dessert!
