A few weeks ago a friend asked me to make her a birthday treat but wanted me to use her favorite liquor, Patron Tequila XO Cafe. We couldn't decide what would be the best way to incorporate this into a dessert. Perhaps Tequila chocolate cake, or Tequila infused frosting...then Stephane came up with the winner: Tiramisu! I've never made Tiramisu before, so I knew this was going to be a challenge. I started with making the lady finger cake from scratch, and while that was cooking, I whipped up the coffee syrup using premo espresso along with the cafe Tequila. While the lady fingers were cooling, I worked on the creamy marscapone filling. Once everything was ready, I dutifully soak the lady fingers in the coffee syrup and start assembling the Tiramisu. It looked lovely once it was done! Now just to hear about the taste...
