    in all seriousness, what is tiramisu?
    Tiramisu is an Italian dessert made of biscuits dipped in coffee and mascarpone cream.
    The biscuits are sprinkled with or briefly soaked in a mixture of coffee, rum, and sugar. They are layered with a mixture of mascarpone cheese and zabaglione, a custard made from egg yolks, Marsala, and sugar. Cocoa powder is then sprinkled on top.

  • Tamim1974,
    You wouldn't happen to know how many servings this makes would you? Sounds awfully wonderful and under 200 cals a serving! Never had real tiramisu but always wanted to try it, now my diet won't stop me. :smile:
