Eggless Tiramisu

ShareSave

Tiramisu literally means pick me up in Italian. This dessert has become very famous in the past few years. It is made of layers of lady fingers ( sponge fingers) dipped in coffee mixture, mascaporne cheese-egg mixture, finally dusted with cocoa powder.

I happened to try my hands on this one when a friend of mine was coming over from Chennai and requested me to make a tiramisu as that was her favourite. Of course my version is the eggless version. It smells heavenly and will be finished in just one sitting.

 50 g Caster sugar

 30 ml Coffee liqueur(optional)

Beat the whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Set aside.

Stir the coffee and liquor together. Lightly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture. Do not soak or the cookies will be soggy.
