Tiramisu is a famous coffee-flavoured Italian dessert. It is generally made by dipping the ladyfinger biscuits in freshly brewed coffee, and layering it with a whipped custard mixture of eggs, sugar, and mascarpone cheese, flavoured with cocoa. The original recipe might be a bit tedious with beating egg yolks and we generally do not like to eat raw eggs in our cakes/desserts. So I wanted to go eggless and keep things simple and quick. Like me, you can choose to buy readymade ladyfinger biscuits (now its available online) from Nature's basket or Amazon. Or you can make do with vanilla sponge cake slices - bake them for 10 mins until they are crisp.
Tiramisu has been the most exquisite dessert for us, because of its rich coffee flavour and creamy texture. It was in my to-do list for a very long time, and I was so lazy to make it from scratch. In India it is difficult to get the ready made savoiardi or sponge finger biscuits. And mascarpone cheese availability is also an expensive and rare ingredient here. But you can make them at home if you have some patience. I was lucky that I had been to Europe last year and got a chance to get these biscuits to India. Since then I was planning to make this recipe for a special day, we are cutting calories otherwise you see :)
