TWD: Tiramisu

caketiramisu

This was delicious. I even ate almost 1/6th of it myself and I made the whole recipe.. eek... that's a lot of cream cheese frosting!

Sorry for the background furniture and not the prettiest pic, but I was in a big rush. Right now, I'm either panicking, nervous or stressed because I'm either waiting to write, writing, or just finished writing my exam.

Thank you so much Megan of My baking adventures for this week's amazing pick! The recipe can be found on her blog or you can buy the book here. Don't forget to visit the TWD blogroll.

    Oh, no one's looking at the BACKGROUND, just at the foreground!!! I wish I had had tiramisu cake (instead of just bad coffee) during my exams. Good luck! You'll do great. And yes, seriously delicious. I think this was my favorite TWD so far.

    I would love to try a different version of tiramisu, you know one that is far easier to make. Loving this one.

    Good luck on your exam(s)! I'm sure you'll do great. I bet the extra caffeine (from eating the tiramisu) is giving you lots of energy, so don't feel bad about the calories!

    I don't know how you can blog and bake when you're in the middle of exams - I admire you! That's one of my concerns when I go back to school in the fall. And your cake looks fantastic - makes me wish I had tackled this recipe.

    This could be a very dangerous dessert to have in the house during exam time! I would have eaten the entire thing. I hope your exams went well.
