I found this exact same recipe on the back of my package of ladyfingers. Instead of coffee liqueur, I brushed the spongy ladyfingers with coffee. I used two 3-ounce packages of ladyfingers and assembled the tiramisu in a springform pan. I found that I fell short of a few ladyfingers, and I have yet to find a successful technique of layering them in the bottom of the springform pan in a neat and organized fashion. I refrigerated the tiramisu overnight but made the mistake of letting it come to room temperature before serving. You MUST serve the tiramisu as soon as it comes out of the refrigerator or else it will be too soft and literally melt! I've never tasted tiramisu before; the adults liked the coffee flavor and even thought that the tiramisu was a little too sweet. In contrast, the kids disliked the bitter coffee flavor and wanted a sweeter taste. But perhaps that's just how tiramisu tastes. It's more of an adult, not a kid, dessert. At least with a dusting of cocoa powder and chocolate shavings, the presentation was lovely.
