Tiramisu is meant to be shared

It’s funny how people will always ‘help’ you in making New Year’s Resolutions. Last year, my daughters Kristin and Karen wanted me to make a book of Family and my recipes… I was happy to do so. This year Karen asked me to make one video.

First, unlike other members of my family, I have never made a video … and if this wasn’t challenging enough, I had to hold my iPhone in one hand in order to film the experience! I brought the film into Windows Film Maker and after a few choice words, it was completed.

I was planning to make Tiramisu today and so you are catching me and my surroundings… well, not on our Sunday bests. The film wasn’t scripted… which probably shows and I ended up with a smudge of meringue for the last third of the movie… but it was fun and I ended up crossing one resolution off a rather lengthy list.

Funny, I told Laura I was going to give this away… but the look she gave me said… no.

Bon Appetite!

Tiramisu: STEP-by-STEP Recipe

tiramisu cake made right

the Tiramisu Cake was prepared to celebrate by daughter Karen's DISSERTation!

A while back I found recipes for Tiramisu cake that I frankly thought were not worth the effort. Sponge cake never equates to home made ladyfingers! So to celebrate my daughter Karen passing her oral defense of her dissertation, we enjoyed this wonderful cake!

Here is the recipe

Congratulations Karen!

By the way, when you make a solid disk of lady finger batter, it has the capacity to hold a lot of liquor! If you eat some, let someone else drive!
