I can't believe how time flies so fast. Just a couple of days ago, my daughter just turned 4 months old. In few days time it will be Christmas soon. In matter of weeks we need to get used to writing 2008. By tomorrow my husband and I will be celebrating our fifth year wedding anniversary. In a few months time I will be visiting my family in Philippines to whom I havent seen for three years now. I am sure to see many of my nieces and nephew who have grown up few inches more. And my parents with always the same smile but probably with lesser hair or much gray hair since the last time I saw them. At the moment I only feel excitement and gratitude. For this year may have passed so fast before my eyes but filled with so much blessings.
And to enjoy a much sweeter time there is nothing else better than a cold tiramisu. This is my version of the famous Italian dessert express way without raw eggs. I was so tempted to try the Dulche de Leche recipe of Gloria, so I didnt hesitated in adding them up in my recipe.
about a dozen of ladyfingers, 1 cup of espresso, 60 g of sugar, 1 pint heavy cream, about 8 ounces of Mascarpone cheese, 1 tsp of vanilla extract, some nutella or any chocolate spread, dulche de leche
In a bowl, at medium speed, beat mascarpone with heavy cream and the sugar until soft peaks form. Beat in 1 Tbsp of vanilla, until stiff then put in the fridge. In a small bowl pour the espresso coffee then dip one by one the lady fingers. Arrange this dipped lady finger on your individual verrine. Put a layer of cold mascarpone, then a spoon of chocolate nutella then a spoon of dulche de leche. Repeat this procedure twice, the last layer should be a layer of mascarpone. Keep them covered in fridge for a minimum of 5 hours. Sprinkle it with some cocoa powder before serving.

more decadent and beautifully-presented desserts from you. will have to keep a log of things i need to try. this looks absolutely scrumptious.
you are right about time flying by. especially once you have children, the clocks and calendars seem to go on overdrive...
Wow! Anything with dulce de leche has a very special place in my heart.
The dessert is so beautifully presented!
Mmmm. All my favorites combined.
Hapy Wedding anniversery. Have funtoday.
Love the tiramisu
Say hi to you little one.
you've been taking some great pictures dhanggit! It looks so decadent.
I've tasted Tiramisu of Mamie, the best! But will definitely do this on Christmas, hubby's fave! HAZE
I love tiramisu and you made it even more delicious with the addition of Nutella and dulce de leche. It looks beautiful!
beautiful pics and yummy dessert
Have fun with all your great celebrations!!
I am reading a book called La Dolce Vita by Isabel Coe. Your tiramisu is so lovely to indulge!
I just need one serving of Time, and one serving of Tiramisu., please? :P
BLESS you, Dhanngit! I'm making tiramisu for Xmas Eve and I cannot select a recipe among 1000's! Most of them use the soft lady fingers (I prefer the hard ones, like you feature). Love the idea to do them up individually -- less mess, very stylish. Did the biscuits retain their crispness or soften as they rested?
Oh my what a beautiful creation here - I wish I could have a spoonful too ;)
Wishing you and your hubby a very happy fifth year wedding anniversary :)

Happy Anniversary to you and your husband. My husband is crazy over Dulce de Leceh since he is from Argentine :) :) Your tiramisu sure look good. I too made individual serving for our Thanksgiving dinner.
I was just thinking of how this sounds so decadent, and then I saw the recipe below it. Whoohee! Love the mouse too! :)
I haven't head Tiramisu in such a long time! This looks so good. Happy Holidays!

hi my dear susan, i really think hard ladyfingers are better, the one i used i bought it in an italian store here..the idea of putting them in verrine or individual glasses i've seen it on my fave chef's tv show..he said its better not to over moisten the fingers..i followed it and its perfect..its soft with cake texture and not soggy
thanks my dear rosie :-)
