Tiramisu
Here is my Tiramisu recipe. Always gets rave reviews Ingredients EGG YOLKS, 8 SUGAR, 1 cup MILK, 1/4 cup WHIPPING CREAM, 2 cups NEUFACHATEL CHEESE, 8 oz. RICOTTA CHEESE, 8 oz. HAZELNUT-BLEND COFFEE, 2 cups brewed and cooled (you can use another flavored coffee if you prefer) AMARETTO, 1/4 cup (I have also used Godiva Choc. liqueur, and Kahlua in addition...just make sure the total amount is the same)(PS-you can get the little tiny "sample" bottles from the liquor store if you don't keep these on hand) LADYFINGERS, 50 (you may want to use a few more depending on the size of the serving dish you are preparing it in) BITTERSWEET CHOCOLATE, 2-1/2 oz. grated COCOA POWDER for sifting Directions: Whisk egg yolks, half the sugar, and the milk in a 2-quart saucepan until smooth and blended. Heat to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Refrigerate and cool. Whip the whipping cream to very stiff peaks. Set aside in the refrigerator. Mix the cheeses together until well blended. Add remaining ½ cup of sugar. Stir in the yolk mixture. Then fold in the whipping cream. Combine the coffee and Amaretto in a large mixing bowl. Quickly dip each ladyfinger in the coffee mixture and place on the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish. Sprinkle with half the chocolate. Cover with half of the cheese mixture. Add another layer of dipped ladyfingers. Sprinkle with chocolate and finish with the cheese mixture. Sift cocoa powder over the top and garnish with coarsely grated chocolate. Refrigerate overnight for best flavor.
