CHOCOLATE-ESPRESSO TIRAMISU



Chocolate-Espresso Tiramisu image

Timing does not include the 24 hours needed to chill. You could sub in boughten ladyfingers-split, if you prefer. I prefer using amaretti biscuits myself. I appreciate that this can be portioned into pudding cups and frozen-perfect when cooking for 2! I use regular coffee--I put a half scoop into small bowl with 1 cup water, cover it with wax paper (or it really messes up your microwave --I can vouch for that--lol!!) then nuke for about 2 minutes-- strain through coffee filter.
