Amazing Tirimisu
Recipe By :Charlotte
Categories:Desserts
5 egg yolks
16 ounces marscapone cheese -- (Bel-Gio-Oso brand is best.
Some of the other brands don't set up as well)
1/8 cup artificial sweetener -- or equivalent, sweeten to taste.
2 teaspoons vanilla
1/8 cup espresso coffee -- or extremely strong coffee (can be
decaf)
24 vanilla wafer cookies -- (Keeblers brand has fewest carbs)
2 teaspoons cocoa powder -- (optional - cinnamon or little peels
of
unsweetened chocolate make good garnishes as well)
Whipping cream -- (also optional)
Brew the espresso or very strong
coffee. Pour in a cup. Put in the
freezer to cool. Mix together the eggs, sugar, mascarpone cheese
and vanilla, until very
smooth. Side aside. Line the bottom of a 12"springform pan
with one layer of vanilla wafers
(about 24). When the coffe is cool, spoon the coffee onto the
wafers, just enough
to flavor them but not make them distingerate (a very fine line).
Spoon the cheese mixture onto the wafers, smooth with the back
of a
metal spoon. Refrigerate for 4 hours. When ready to serve, top
the tiramisu
with a thin layer of cocoa powder.
Garnish with whipped cream and serve. Serves 12.
Also try mixing in a bit of the espresso into the cheese mixture

NOTES : My friends had no idea
it was sugar-free, this is a MUST try!!!
Impress the bejeesus out of friends who see low carb diets as
restrictive! Marscapone cheese isn't as hard to come by as one
might think, I found
it in the deli of my local supermarket.
