Serving a small portion of Tiramisu per person is more than adequate
and goes a long way. It should be served when your entire dinner menu is
light.... when there are no pasta cream sauces or heavy cream soups

Serves 2
2/3 cup Mascarpone Italian cheese
3 tablespoons powdered sugar
1/2 cup espresso or strong coffee
2 tablespoons Kahlua liqueur
4.75 ounce box Ladyfingers (available at Trader Joe's)
2 teaspoons semi-sweet chocolate, finely chopped for garnish
2 mint sprigs for garnish
In a mixing bowl blend mascarpone Italian cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.
In a shallow bowl combine espresso (or strong coffee) and Kahlua liqueur.
Dip Ladyfingers (finger shaped sponge cake) briefly in the espresso-Kahlua mixture, the Ladyfingers are very fragile and fall apart
easily if left too long in the liqueur. Line the Ladyfingers vertically around the inside of a martini glass (when they are soft they
can be adjusted to fit the narrow base of the glass). Spoon the Mascarpone-sugar mixture into
the center of the martini glass, garnish with chopped chocolate, fresh mint sprigs and serve.
