"Tiramisu dessert feels like a complicated and fancy dessert. But, making Tiramisu doesn’t have to be hard. This recipe takes less than an hour, but will please your family guests to no end. If you love spices such as cinnamon powder, powdered cloves, or a hint of nutmeg, this is the dessert for you. The classic recipe calls for rum, but this recipe omitted that ingredient so that children can enjoy this coffee-based dessert too. You can pair this delicious tiramisu dessert with some sweet wines."
