Tiramisu is a popular coffee infused dessert enjoyed the world over. It is made by taking delicious ladyfinger cookies, soaking them in coffee, and layering them. When served, it looks similar to a dessert lasagna. Rather than using regular coffee, I opted for a hazelnut flavor to add a nutty, earthy taste to it. It’s rich, creamy, texture, will have you finishing the whole tray you make!
