Easy Tiramisu

It was Shaunak's birthday on 17th nov. We had the usual mid night cake cutting. ( Black forest cake from albertons was really good )

Since it was his first budday after marriage , I wanted to make it special. Got him gifts. For dinner he wanted to eat Idli Sambhar Chutney.

As for the dessert , I was in a mood to experiment something new. This time I thought of Tiramisu. After much surfing on the net, I came across a few recipes which looked easy. The final product turned out pretty well.

Here is what you need.

• Sponge cake (plain or vanilla)
• 8 oz Tiramisu Mascarpone Cheese ( This is easily available in any grocery store.)
• 1 cup whipped cream
• 3 to 4 tbsp confectioners sugar or fine sugar
• 1 tsp coffee powder.
• Cocoa powder for dusting

Method.

1. In a bowl, mix the whipped cream , sugar and cheese till properly blended.
2. In another bowl add 2 to 4 tsp of water to the instant coffee powder.
3. Slice the sponge cake into thin squares
4. Now place one slice on a plate and pour some of the coffee mixture on it.
5. The spread one layer of the cheese and cream mixture on it.
6. Now place another layer of the cake slice and repeat steps 4 and 5.
7. Make at least 3 layers of the cake.
8. Spread the cheese and cream mixture on the top layer.
