I like the idea of making tiramisu with a cake base. I always worry that the supermarket bakery won't have 3 packages of lady fingers when I make my traditional tiramisu.
I was thrilled to find Tiramisu liqueur in NH. It's hard to find but the flavor is so worth it if you make tiramisu. http://www.crownwineandspirits.com/p-1894-tiramisu-liqueur.aspx?vid=2185
I felt compelled chime in as another reader who honestly, skips over when a recipe calls for a specialty KA products like cake enhancer, tiramisu mix and pizza dough stupifier and the like. My Nannie didn't need these gimmicks to bake wonderful desserts and I don't either.
Be sure to read the review and other comments on the recipes when they are published....or even read through the blog text with pictures. Ingredients substitutions are often listed there. Happy Baking! Irene @ KAF
