Believe me, Tiramisu doesn’t come any better than this. This recipe originates from an Italian family and they know how to make the stuff. Tira mi su means: ‘pull me up’, and if you put away to much you’ll understand why. The only down site to this delicious dessert is the amount of calories. But who is counting when eating this!
