I only used the ladyfingers recipe and it was excellent! I used these lady fingers with "Classic Tiramisu" from this site and it was to die for!

I made this with a combo of store bought lady fingers and some angel food cake cut into ladyfinger size, and kahlua instead of rum, all leftover stuff. I used store bought whipped topping . I made it for DH's book club dinner, got raves about it. It really is better the onger it sits, I made it in the am and it would have been better if I had done it 1-2 days before. The angel food cake worked great.

Super recipe. To substitute mascarpone you can use cream cheese 16oz, 1/2c whipping cream, 5 Tbls sour cream

I fixed Emily's Tiramisu for an Italian themed dinner party. My husband who haad tiramisu at almost every restaurant we ate at in Italy thought mine was better. Will do this again. I used Meyer's Original Dark Rum for the dark rum. Based on the starbucks staff I ordered a cup of the Starbucks Verona - french pressed for the strong coffee. (I am not a coffee drinker)

I've been making this recipe for years now and it's amazing. I usually add a bit more liquor (and even add different kinds to complement the rum), and tend to use a little more mascarpone.

I have made this twice in one week, for two different parties and everyone loved it each time. Thanks to the other raters saying it was too sweet, I had cut the sugar in HALF and it was just right. Great recipe, Emily. It's in my recipe book to make many more times. Shirley

I have made this recipe many times, and often get requests for it. I found it to be a little too sweet, so I have backed off on using a full cup of sugar in the syrup, and I use 1 cup of coffee instead of 1/2 cup to bring out a stronger flavor. Over all I love this recipe!

I love tiramisu, so I thought that I'd give it a go. I would recommend some changes. I made this with store bought lady fingers and would make them if you have the time. I also thought that this was WAY to sweet, so I'll cut the sugar in half all the way around next time. I had LOTS of the coffee-based syrup left which makes me wonder if most people are using all of it in the recipe. Don't do that, because it will turn out way to runny. I made this in a trifle dish and it was very pretty. Sooooo, I'll try again and post the results after!

I'm amazed that there aren't more comments about the excessive sweetness of this recipe. It's a shame, because in all other respects it is an amazing dessert - the texture, the appearance, and the underlying flavors are all wonderful. But ackkk! the sugar destoys the delicate mascarpone taste; you can't even tell it's there. Next time I will do as another reviewer suggested and halve the sugar all around. BTW, I served this to Italian friends yesterday who finished it politely but certainly didn't rave or ask for seconds. Nor did my friend whose absolute favorite dessert is tiramisu. But overall, the recipe is easy and beautiful.

I didn't have time for making the lady fingers, so I bought them. This was still really wonderful. There was a lot more syrup than necessary - I ate it over ice cream. Yum.

This was my first time making this and I did not care of it too much. I followed the recipe to a T. The rum flavor was too much to handle for me. The heavy cream layer did have a nice texture and mine did not leak. Also, I didn't have enough batter for the outter circle of ladie finger. Although the lady fingers were yummy and I will use the recipe with a diff. filling recipe. I ended up buying ladyfingers for the circumfrance. If any of you live by a Polish deli I suggest the Polish ladyfingers as they are A LOT softer than the Italian ones. Look for a box that says "Biszkopty" on them.

I use this recipe and it is flawless. The only thing that I don't do is the handmade lady fingers, I use Goya Lady Fingers, because they are crispy and when you soak them they become cake texture.
