Cannoli Tiramisu'
Ingredients:
2 (8oz) containers mascarpone cheese
1 lb whole milk ricotta
1 pint of heavy cream, whipped (you may substitute with a 16 oz container of thawed Cool Whip if you’re rushing)
1 tsp vanilla
2 teaspoons lemon extract
1/4 cup confectionery sugar
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
1 (16oz) package of dry lady fingers (savoiardi)
2 1/2 cups of weak espresso coffee
Directions:
Begin by mixing mascarpone, ricotta, whipped cream, sugar, vanilla and lemon extract in a large bowl with a hand mixer.
When mixture is fluffy and smooth, add chocolate chips.
Mix one minute longer and set aside.
Use a 13x9 glass baking dish to assemble the tiramisù.
Place coffee in a bowl.
Quickly dip each lady finger (both sides) in the coffee and place on the bottom of the glass pan until you have an even layer.
Spread a little less than half of the whipped mix over the soaked lady fingers.
Cover evenly with another layer of soaked lady fingers.
Place the remaining whipped mix into a piping bag with a rosette tip.
Squeezing gently, make rosettes over the entire top layer.
Sprinkle with unsweetened cocoa powder.
Cover with film wrap and refrigerate at least 12 hours.
Serve cold.
