New tiramisu
This new version of tiramisu is easier, and in my opinion much better. You will certainly appreciate, like me, the light creamy taste, this time presented in brandy goblets.

Remarks
Tiramisu is better the following day, so don't hesitate to make in advance and keep it in the fridge, protected from air by plastic film. In this case it's better to add the final cocoa powder layer just before serving.
If you love chocolate, you can add a cocoa layer on each layer of cream as well as on top.
Tiramisu can be made in several flavours, afficionados will say that it is no longer a tiramisu of course, but it's really good.
Fruit tiramisu: replace coffee + Amaretto with a mix of 75% fruit coulis (fruit purée) + 25% sugar syrup to get something liquid enough to soak your biscuits, and add a layer of fruit coulis on each layer of cream.
You can also change alcohol, by replacing Amaretto by Macvin du Jura for example.

It's "the simpliest cake in the world", called four quarters, because it's made with 1/4 eggs, 1/4 sugar, 1/4 flour and 1/4 butter. February 21th 2011335 K3.7 1 hour 15 min.
European glass
A little dessert that's rather long to make, but which will always impress your guests. Layered in a glass: a jellied red fruit coulis, a layer of pineapple charlotte cream, a layer of kiwi coulis, topped with a peeled clementine segment. It's "european" because it resembles the italian flag, and in another version with apricot instead raspberries, the irish flag (a country so dear to me). August 15th 2010245 K5 2 hours 30 min.
