Semifredo is very easy to make, just beat, mix and put in the freezer, and then you get lovely delicious dessert. No strove top heat because you don't have to make the custard base, haha, what a great thing!
The original recipe calls for ricotta cheese, but in my opinion, mascarpone is a lot better (Ok, I love it), lightly sweet and rich, I think you can't resist it.
About the dried fruit, if you don't want to use alcohol, you can plum the fruit in the water or orange juice and feel free to use any fruits that you like.
