Tiramisu Dip

"By turning tiramisu into a dip, you skip all the hassle of making the traditional trifle without losing any of the flavor. We liked strawberries and various cookies as dippers, but the dip could be spooned into individual cups with a few ladyfingers for a quick, elegant dessert. The dip can be made up to 2 days in advance and refrigerated in a covered container. Taken from CHOW.com *Cook time is chilling time."

  1. Wonderful! I served it with fresh strawberries. I ended up using more cocoa powder than called for (operator error - but it turned out great). I used marsala. In addition to marsala or Kahlua, this would also be good with Bailey's or Grand Marnier. Thank you for the recipe. Made for PRMR.
     
  2. I prepared this for my breackfast (scaled down to one portion). I confess I feel back to enjoy something like this alone as it was too good! I used marsala (only one teaspoon for one portion) enjoyed with cookies, self made cake and peeled fresh apples. I found the apples the best with this! Thanks a lot for this delicious breackfast!

  3. Loved this smeared on fresh strawberries! I actually had to make this twice because I had "technical difficulties" the first time around -- I walked away for what I thought was just a couple of minutes while it was mixing, and when I came back, I think it had started turning into butter! There was no fluffiness, and it was pourable and grainy. It still tasted good, but was not good as a dip, so I threw that batch away and started over (luckily, I had enough of the ricotta and mascarpone left over to do so). Round 2, I watched it like a hawk, and I turned off the mixer at about 2 minutes because I was paranoid, lol. MUCH better results, fluffy and delicious! I definitely need to make sure that I have company the next time I make this, since I've already eaten half of it by myself, oops. I tried it with some galletas Maria, but I think it's much better with strawberries. Oh, and I used the Kahlua option, since the only marsala I had was marsala cooking wine. Fabulous, Alli, thanks for posting! Made for Culinary Quest 1
     
  4. I confess - I did not make this as a dip; I made this in the traditional way with the ladyfingers laid on the bottom of a rectangular glass dish. I poured a bit of cold coffee on them, then spread the heavenly tiramisu dip on top. It was perfectly delicious! Better than I've tasted in restaurants. Made for Culinary Quest 2014 - CCQs
     
  5. OMG, this is amazing!!!! Alli, what a decadent treat! Mmmmm, this is rich, creamy, chocolatey and just plain addictive! I could not stop eating it and neither could my sis. :)<br/>I made half the recipe for the two of us using low fat ingredients and only 1/2 tbs of sugar as the chocolate made this sweet enough for our taste (used a little less of that as well). As I dont drink alcohol I used some hazelnut coffee creamer in place of it and that turned out lovely. I cant wait to make this again, its my new favourite dessert, which is truly dangerous, I fear. ;)<br/>THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing a true keeper with us, hon!<br/>Made and reviewed for Everyday Tag November 2011.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Someone special recently gifted me with membership ~ I don't know who, but know they are special :D! Thank you! It is much appreciated.... My parents owned a grocery store when I was growing up, so there's my love of FOOD! My friends all love to drink, so there's my profession! I stopped bartending 5 years ago, when my son was born, but still 'do' private parties. DH and I did a 'Supper Club' for a while, but life kept getting in the way! I am a SAHM, to a rambunctious 5 y.o....I LOVE cooking and collect cookbooks and anything kitchen related! I'm kinda picky, but will just drop an ingredient or make a sub, so I can still try a recipe. I'm looking forward to many years of enjoyment here, and hope to participate in some events soon! Thanks to everyone for posting such great recipes, and if you review mine, just know that I appreciate the time and effort involved in the reviewing process! <img src="http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af225/z_fbp/ZaarFBPwk4.jpg"> <img src="http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af225/z_fbp/ZaarFBPwkWC.jpg"> <img src="http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q23/vseward/Bevy/officialmemberofthebevtaggame.jpg"> <a href="http://www.recipezaar.com/cookbook.php?bookid=220958"><img src="http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q23/vseward/Bevy/beveragetagcookbook1.gif"></a> <img src="http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a132/tgifford/Game%20Room%20Banners/AM%20Banners/KBparticipation.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/RSC%20Lucky%2013/ParticipationSticker.jpg"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/CookbookParticipation2.jpg"> Partnered with chef#724631 <img src="http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a254/Sharon123/Copyoftag300-banner.jpg" border="0" alt="Susie's Banner for Newest Zaar Tag"> <img src="http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r317/j_welcome/pics2/food/PRMRcopy.jpg"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg"> Co-hosted: <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/Animation6.gif"> <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg"> <img src="http://i425.photobucket.com/albums/pp340/northwestgal/redbannercopy.jpg" border="0" alt="New Kids Participation Banner"> <img src="http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj81/HokiesLady65/Recipezaar%20Album/iplaytagin.jpg"> <img src ="http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u208/diner_photos/lazymecookathon.jpg"> <a href="http://s106.photobucket.com/albums/m276/ribosomal/?action=view&current=BBB2b3.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m276/ribosomal/BBB2b3.jpg" border="0" alt="BBBZWT%"></a> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/participantbannerzwt5.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a132/tgifford/Game%20Room%20Banners/AM%20Banners/BBG-AMbanner.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/7505/mybanner4a394ee84d5f0.jpg" > <img src="http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a132/tgifford/Game%20Room%20Banners/AM%20Banners/holidaybadge.gif" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t237/akplongmeadow/MyBannerMaker_Banner3.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y22/dcmac/PAC%20Fall%2009/Image1.jpg"> <img src="http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj81/HokiesLady65/Banners/holidayprmr2.jpg"> <img src="http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj81/HokiesLady65/Banners/ST_AMBADGE.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Holiday-plaid_HPI.gif" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src= "http://i610.photobucket.com/albums/tt181/alligirl65/thesnowmorning-3-1-1.jpg">
