I’ve always been a fan of Olive Garden’s Tiramsu and I made this as dessert for my Christmas dinner. I was intimidated by the whole double boiler thing, but don’t be! It was very easy! It came out EXCELLENT!!! I used regular, crunchy ladyfinger from the cookie aisle and bought a sample size Kahula bottle at my local liquor store instead of buying a large bottle. My only changes would be to cut the sugar, just a little bit, maybe 3/4 c instead of a full cup and take their advice…if you can let this sit in the fridge overnight it comes out the best, which we discovered eating leftovers the next day! ENJOY!!!

I tried this recipe today n it came out good. Im sad to say that OG is better. The cheese mixture is thicker than OG. Next time I Will use heavy whipping cream instead of the cream cheese.

I am going to try out this recipe. My daughter and I are making a Tiramisu (hopefully) for a high school cake auction to raise money for their senior trip in 2012. We have to make it big and want to make it in the shape of of the Fleur De Lis, which we have to make a mold out of tin foil to shape it and fill it. She wants to use a green or ruby red sparkle sugar to sprinkle on top of the cake for glamour as we intend to fill the outside board of the cake with hard candy jewels. I will probally add the coca into the layers so that the coca flavor is added but will not be on top. I really hope this works. If anyone has suggestions to make the high school cake better I would love the input to consider. The cake is due on stage October 29, 2011. Thanks!

This is really good! If you don’t have an expresso machine, purchase a few shots of expresso at a coffee shop and let it cool. I used Bailey’s instead of Kahula because I had it available. The Bailey’s was good, but think Kahula would be even better. When layering the cheese and ladyfingers, only use a small amount of cheese in-between the two layersof ladyfingers if you want the thick and creamy cheese layer in the picture.

According to other recipes, use the soft ladyfingers so it doesn’t come out chewy!

I’ll have to ask my bro about the ingredients (kahlua). He works at OG and could probably get the official recipe for me.

do you use the hard or soft ladyfingers?

Do you have to use Kahlua, what if you did not put it in, how bad will it change the taste

Did you get some insider info on this? I don’t want to change the recipe unless I’m sure. Thanks for the input
