i would like to know the method to do tramasue
Here’s a recipe for tiramisu.
Tiramisu
2/3 cup sifted powdered sugar
1 (8-ounce) tub reduced-fat cream cheese
11/2 cups frozen reduced-calorie whipped topping, thawed and divided
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
3 egg whites
1/2 cup hot water
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon instant espresso granules
2 tablespoons Kahlua or other coffee-flavored liqueur
20 ladyfingers
1/2 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa
Combine powdered sugar and cream cheese in a bowl; beat at high speed of a mixer until well-blended. Gently fold 1 cup whipped topping into cheese mixture.
Combine 1/2 cup sugar, 1/4 cup water and egg whites in the top of a double boiler; place over simmering water. Beat at high speed of a mixer until stiff peaks form. Gently stir 1/4 of egg white mixture into cheese mixture. Gently fold in remaining egg white mixture; set aside.
Combine 1/2 cup hot water, 1 tablespoon sugar, espresso and Kahlua; stir well. Split ladyfingers in half lengthwise. Arrange 20 ladyfinger halves, cut sides up, in the bottom of an 8-inch square baking dish. Drizzle half of espresso mixture over ladyfingers. Spread half of cheese mixture over ladyfingers; repeat procedure with the remaining ladyfinger halves, espresso mixture and cheese mixture. Spread 1/2 cup whipped topping evenly over cheese mixture; sprinkle with cocoa.
Place 1 toothpick in each corner and in center of tiramisu to prevent plastic wrap from sticking to whipped topping; cover with plastic wrap. Chill 2 hours. Makes 8 servings. Each serving contains 226 calories and 7 grams fat.
Hey Sharon. I’m a big fan! Can’t wait to pick up a copy. Speaking of horse farms, I’ve just published a book about horses and horse farms in this area of the world, Horse Farms & Horse Tales of the Bluegrass.
