### **Instructions**:

#### 1. **Prepare the Lemon Cream**:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk heavy cream until soft peaks form. Set aside.
- In another bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
- Add sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla essence to the cream cheese and mix well until smooth.
- Gently fold in the whipped cream to create a light and fluffy lemon cream mixture.

#### 2. **Prepare Lemon Syrup**:
- In a bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and lemon juice. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely.

#### 3. **Assemble the Tiramisu**:
- Quickly dip each ladyfinger biscuit in the lemon syrup (don’t let them soak for too long or they’ll become too soggy).
- Arrange a layer of soaked biscuits at the bottom of a rectangular dish or serving glasses.
- Spread a layer of the lemon cream mixture over the biscuits.
- Repeat the layers (biscuits, then cream) until you reach the top of the dish, ending with a layer of cream.

#### 4. **Chill & Garnish**:
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours (or overnight) to let the flavors meld and the tiramisu set.
- Before serving, garnish with lemon zest, white chocolate shavings, and mint leaves.

### **Tips**:
- For an extra tangy kick, add a teaspoon of lemon curd to the cream mixture.
- Serve in individual glasses for a more elegant presentation.
- You can replace the lemon syrup with limoncello (Italian lemon liqueur) for an adult version.
