Tiramisu Torte
"This elegant dessert is a fitting finale to any special dinner or Holiday meal. To save time and elbow grease, you can sub a bag of Heath bar pieces for the chopped bars. If you want to kick this up a notch, brush the layers with a coating of your favorite liquer before frosting!"

Really outstanding Italian dessert! We had a dinner party for six and this was a great way to cap off the meal. There's a cake maker in a town adjacent to mine that makes the BEST cakes and this torte rivals his. Thanks for the recipe! -

YUM-A-LISHOUS! Followed this almost to a T, however I used 8 oz. cream cheese (the light version)and put it together like a trifle. The top I garnished with chocolate shavings. Wonderful flavor. Oh and I also used 2 T espresso powder w/ water for the coffee. Can't wait for another occasion to make this again. TY -
I got this recipe years ago from the Pillsbury Bake-Off 35th Contest Cookbook. It’s always a huge hit when we entertain. -

I already had this recipe, and I make it all the time. My brother-in-law told me to make it every time we get together! Instead of whipping cream, I use cool whip, and it comes out great! I also use light cream cheese. It makes more frosting than I need, so I just throw the extra away. The cake does get a bit crumbly, but it all tastes the same! Yummy!

What can I say about myself that hasn't already been mentioned in the police reports? Just kidding! I'm a single guy who loves to cook! Good thing, or I'd starve or go broke eating out! I love to read, horror and mysteries are my favorite.
Love music, (except rap) and I'm a huge Green Bay Packer Fan!
