Tiramisu is an italian cake & dessert. It is made of ladyfingers which is basically a sponge cake cut in long strips, dipped in coffee & layered with a whipped mixture of egg yolks & mascarpone cheese. Since, I dint get mascarpone cheese, I used paneer or cottage cheese which is as good as mascarpone cheese. And, Tiramisu means "Pick Me Up" so go ahead make it & dig in !!
