My husband loves this. It's better than what you get at an Italian restaurant.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

When it comes to Italian desserts, tiramisu is one of the easiest desserts to make at home. Light and creamy, it has a hint of coffee flavor. Ladyfingers quickly soaked in coffee are layered between the creamiest mascarpone cheese whipped cream filling. Dust with a touch of cocoa powder and chocolate shavings when serving for an elegant no-bake dessert.
