Recipe - Tiramisu

Original recipe found at Kraftfoods.com.

I altered it, so here is my version of it...

What you need: 

13x9-inch dish

1 package of Lady Fingers (I didn't use the whole package)

1 cup of coffee

1 tbsp. of sugar

2 pkg. Cream Cheese, softened

1/2 cup of sugar

2 cups of Cool Whip

your choice of amount of unsweetened cocoa powder

To make it:

Start a pot of coffee, enough to make one cup.  

While coffee is going, put the softened cream cheese in a bowl and mix with hand mixer until creamy.  Add 1/2 cup of sugar and mix again.

Stir/fold whipped topping in with cream cheese and sugar.

Coffee should be about done, take one cup and add 1 tablespoon of sugar to coffee and stir.

Layer bottom of dish with Lady Fingers.  

Brush on 1/2 of the coffee.  You will brush it over each lady finger more than once.  

When you finish with the 1/2 cup of coffee, take a little less than 1/2 of the whipped mixture and spread on Lady Fingers.  Add another layer of Lady Fingers, and repeat above steps.  After you have the top layer of whipped mixture, add cocoa on the top to give it some color.

Put in the fridge for at least 4 hours.

I have made 2 dishes already.  I made the full dish Friday that was refrigerated over night, I also made one yesterday that was refrigerated for a little over 4 hours.  It was a big hit on Saturday when I was helping some friends move.
