This is my first time trying out Tiramisu... Actually this is a very easy recipe cos no baking is required.. I have not tried this till now is because it is not easy to find the main ingredient....Lady Fingers. Hey...this finger is not the finger that you are thinking abt... Its a kind of biscuit..in rectangular form..with sugar coating on top.. Not all supermarkets carry this...so have to really search for it. The rest of the ingredients are quite easy, whipping cream, liquor, coca powder, mascaporne cheese...
First, make the coffee for soaking the lady fingers. I was afraid that the biscuits would be over soaked and become too soggy...so only brushed a little with the coffee. Because of this..my Tiramisu did not have the coffee flavour..it was not soaked thoroughly.. that is #1 mistake.. Nxt, I think the liquor is not strong enough...should have added more.. The rest of the ingredients is to mix the whipping cream & cheese... look at the remains of the cheese mixture.
The fun part is the layering ...bottom layer biscuit followed by cheese mixture followed by cocoa powder. Then repeat the same process. Finally, put it in the fridge to cool... Here is the finished product...looks nice on the outside..but when I cut it, its too dry.. the biscuits were not wet with coffee & liqueur. I think not enough cocoa powder too.. sighhh...nevermind...first try is always testing... I will try it again the nxt time!
