Tiramisu Recipe

The tiramisu is an authentic Italian recipe that consists of layering cream and coffee soaked biscuits to create a trifle-like layered rich and wholesome dessert. Tiramisu, which also means 'pick me up' in Italian, perfectly depicts their love for coffee in the traditional culture of Italy, with a hearty recipe that is light but has the perfect coffee kick you need.
