It-sa Me-a .. Tiramisu!


T// Bailey's Irish Cream Mocha Tiramisu Cake

My first attempt at Tiramisu! I debated between doing a whole cake and doing individual servings in little cups and ended up obviously, with the cake, just because it's more practical for storage.. and quicker. =) Instead of lady fingers soaked in a liqueur and coffee, I made a moist chocolate cake and soaked it in 2 shots of expresso and Bailey's Irish Cream. (smiles x2 [I'm a coffee junkie]) The cake filling is the traditional Italian marscapone, egg yolks, and sugar. I frosted the cake with homemade whipped cream strongly spiked with Bailey's, finishing everything off with lots of cocao powder, dark chocolate shavings, and chocolate truffle shavings and served it a little bit of chocolate sauce. =) Bon Appetit-o?
