  1. This is a perfectly nice, easy to pull together tiramisu. The recipe reduced down to a third well (there's just 2 of us eating it, and I only had half a cup of cream around). When I make tiramisu again, I'll make sure my sponge fingers are properly soggy; they must be less absorbant than lady fingers. I might also flavour the mascarpone cheese/egg mixture as well. Thanks for sharing the recipe JudesP!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

The reason I think I love to cook so much is to see the satisfaction of someone enjoying something that I have worked hard to create. I love taking a recipe and putting my twist on it. I am a wife, mother, grandmother, real estate agent, Sibu distributor, pool player, gardener, angler, and traveller. My husband and I are newlyweds and very much in love. He is my strength and my best friend. We have four children, 27,24,20, and 10. Our granddaughters, Layla, 6 and Lily 8 mos, are our joys. My cooking skills are self taught with the exception of the cooking channel. I am inspired by Tyler Florence, Mario Batali, Sarah Molton, and Rachel Ray. These are my favorites but I enjoy watching them all. The one recipe requested the most by my friends is my Tiramisu. I make it just a little different from most, but it is tempermental. My sausage pasta is also a favorite. My husband and I have a five year plan. We are escaping to Arizona to live out our retirement. After decades of the northwest we crave the sun.
