Apple Tiramisu


Apple Tiramisu
For this apple version of tiramisu, we first make an apple crisp to sprinkle over the top, then dip the cookies in reduced apple juice.

The result is a tiramisu that's still very creamy, but with a deliciously pronounced apple flavor.

Remarks
If this is a recipe for adults, you can add 2 or 3 tablespoons of "Manzanita" Spanish apple liqueur to the reduced, cold apple juice, as the green apple flavor it brings is a perfect match for the recipe.

As an alternative to spoon cookies, if you can find any, I recommend Savoiardi Italian cookies.
Keeping: 1 or 2 days in the fridge, protected by cling film.
