I have to make most of my basics at home since I live in small town and sometimes, few basics are expensive as well. So I learned to make Mascarpone cheese at home and now I enjoy all great desserts and many other Mascarpone recipes with great taste and here is the recipe with written instructions:
What is Mascarpone Cheese?
A thick Italian cream cheese that tastes WAY better than store bought.

Ingredients:
•Whipping Cream -- 2 cups (500 ml)
•Fresh Lemon Juice -- 1 Tble (15 ml)
Yields: Approx. 3/4 lb (340 g)
Direction:
1.Heat the whipping cream in a non-reactive saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly to prevent scorching.
2.When the cream reaches 190 F(heat up till see you some bubbles around edges), remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice. Continue stirring until the cream curdles, and is thick enough to generously coat the back of a wooden spoon. Allow to sit, undisturbed, for 30 minutes.
3.Line a sieve with several layers of dampened cheesecloth (or a clean, damp cotton/linen dishcloth) and set over a bowl. Pour the cooled cream mixture into the sieve, and allow to drain, undisturbed, until cooled completely. Cover the sieve with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
4.The next day, remove the cheese from the sieve in 1 piece and stir well to make smooth and creamy. Will keep in the fridge for 7 to 10 days.
Tips:
•this recipe is easily increased -- use 1 tble fresh lemon juice for every 2 cups of whipping cream
•use your newly made cheese to make Tiramisu, or better yet, Tiramisu Cheesecake.
