I found this recipe to be excellent and my friends, who had never tried it, loved it. I did add a layer of biscotti instead of Ladyfingers on the second layer...almond biscotti...excellent!!!

This was wonderful! I made a few changes to it: Used a combination of chocolate and yellow lady fingers, added 1 cup of melted german chocolate to the marscapone, and upped the coffee/rum to 1 cup coffee and 1/2 cup rum for EACH layer. Fantastic!

I chose this recipe because the eggs are cooked (raw eggs make me nervous). I have made this recipe twice and received rave reviews. Pretty easy to assemble and looks impressive when you are done.

I LOVE this recipe! Originally, I was quite disappointed. Shortly after making it, I had a piece and decided it wasn't worth the cost of the ingredients or the time it took to find them. However, when I went back to it a day or two later...HEAVEN! I've made it three times since (all in the last month) and I always make it two days before I need it or plan to eat it. It's one of those recipes that needs to sit a while. I use more vanilla, equal parts of coffee and brandy (and more than the recipe calls for), and I've even made it with pound cake when the local bakery/deli is out of ladyfingers...it's just as good and much cheaper!

I made this tiramisu for a family/friend get-together, where there were more than a few "food snobs". It was such a HUGE hit, I was asked to make this every year as a new menu staple. Relatively easy preparation, attractive presentation, and DELICIOUS! Thanks for the recipe!

Tried this recipe and found it to be absolutely delicious! I will, however, double the coffee and rum the next time I make it. It just needs a little more of the coffee flavor, but overall, this is the best tiramisu I've ever tasted. Thank you for sharing this recipe!

Tiramisu is my favorite dessert, and this is an excellent recipe. I've never made it before, but found this recipe quite easy. I doubled the coffee and rum, and I used a pastry brush to soak it into the ladyfingers as I layered them. I'm having a hard time staying away from it!

Absolutely fantastic! Since I can't consume alcohol, I can't eat store-bought tiramisu. The problem was I loved it. Now I can make my own and it's safe to say it's the best! I dropped the rum, got 2 shots of espresso from my favorite coffee shop and added a little bit of water to make it almost 1/2 cup. I used homemade angelfood cake instead of ladyfingers. The outcome was great!!!

Good dessert. Make sure that if you don't use this sized pan that you don't run out of lady fingers. I like more layers than just the two so I added more. I took others' advice and double the coffee and the rum- great flavor. Will make again.

Even the ingredients are quite expensive, it's worth it. It's the best Tiramisu my husband said he have ever had. Also, it is very easy to cook! It's worth a try.
