Make With Me: Tiramisu

I love Tiramisu! It is so good and super easy to make. My parents and I made Tiramisu for Christmas, and I forgot to take a picture of it when it was done. Regardless, I thought I would share the recipe with all of you!

Ingredients:

• 1packages (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
• 3 cups cold milk
• 2 packages (4 serving sizes each) Jell-O Vanilla Flavour Instant Pudding and Pie Filling
• 1 tub (8 oz) Cool Whip, thawed
• Nilla Wafers (approx 50)
• 1/2 a cup of brewed coffee or espresso, cooled
• 2 squares of semi-sweet baking chocolate, coarsely grated
• 1 cup fresh raspberries

Tiramisu in the making

To Make:

• Beat cream cheese in a large bowl with an electric mixer until creamy
• Gradually beat in milk
• Add dry pudding mixes, mixing well
• Stir in 2 cups of cool whip
• Line bottom and sides of a 2 1/2 quart bowl with about half the wafers
• Drizzle half the coffee on the wafers
• Layer half the pudding mix over the wafers
• Top with half the grated chocolate
• Repeat all layers, starting with the wafers
• Top with remaining cool whip and raspberries
• Refrigerate for at least 2 hours
• Enjoy! 

Notes:

1. Instead of a bowl, you can use a glass pan.
2. If using a pan, you can use either wafers or lady finger cookies.
3. I like to dunk the wafers/cookies in coffee/espresso, instead of drizzling the coffee over them, letting the flavour soak into them a bit.
4. Leftovers are to be stored in the refrigerator.
5. Makes 16 servings.
