One of our favorite dessert is the Tiramisu. This Italian dessert that is made by layering coffee-soaked Savoiardi, egg yolks and mascarpone cheese is simply wonderful. Mmm...even at the thought of adding amaretto liqueur and cocoa just makes me salivate now. For me, I add a dash of Palinka as a substitute for the liquor.
20 sponge finger (lady fingers) 1 cup sugar 4 eggs (separated) 1/4 cup cocoa powder 1 1/2 cups mascarpone cheese 2 cups espresso (sweetened to your liking)
Tiramisu (Italian: Tiramisù; Veneto: Tiramesù [tirameˈsu]) is one of the most popular Italian cakes. It is made of savoiardi (or 'lady finger' biscuits) dipped in espresso or strong coffee, layered with a whipped mixture of egg yolks, mascarpone, and sugar, and topped with cocoa.
Tiramisu has become a very popular dessert. The recipe has been adapted into cakes, puddings, and other varieties of dessert. Happy Valentines' Day!
