Coffee-Scented Tiramisu
From: Family CircleTiramisu is a great make-ahead dessert because it tastes even better after a night in the refrigerator. The yummy layers of coffee-drizzled ladyfingers and cream cheese filling meld together into a creamy treat.
Ingredients
1 package (8 ounces) reduced-fat cream cheese, at room temperature
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup coffee liqueur (such as Kahlua)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup heavy cream
24 crisp ladyfinger cookies (7-ounce package); see Note
1 cup strong brewed coffee
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons confectioners' sugar
Directions
1. Beat cream cheese, sugar, coffee liqueur and vanilla in medium-size bowl for 3 to 4 minutes or until light and creamy.
2. Whip cream to firm peaks. Fold whipped cream into cream-cheese mixture.
3. Arrange half of ladyfingers in dish just large enough to hold them in one layer, such as a 12 x 7-inch dish. Drizzle with half the coffee. Top with half the cream-cheese mixture, spreading smooth. Sprinkle with half the cocoa. Arrange the remaining ladyfingers over cocoa. Drizzle with remaining coffee. Top with remaining cream-cheese mixture, smoothing the top. Sprinkle with remaining cocoa.
4. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight. Dust with confectioners' sugar.
