Tiramisu as creamy as it gets


Who loves Tiramisu? I do. I have had many different kinds, and this recipe is by far the best if you like it more on the creamy side. A friend of mine from Germany passed it on to me.

As you can see in this picture, I couldn't resist it. Yummy! It taste so good, it didn't even make it on a plate. It went straight from the bowl, on to the spoon and right away in my mouth.

Here is the recipe...voila!

12 Italian ladyfingers
8oz of mascarpone
1/2 cup of coffee
100 gram of powdered sugar
2 tablespoon almond extract (if you prefer less almond taste then use 1TBS)
1 egg yolk
Chocolate powder

that's it!

Mix egg yolk, almond extract and powdered sugar with electric hand mixer or your super strong hand and a whisk ;-). Mix it until the color is off white. Then add mascarpone and mix it until it is smooth. Use a medium size bowl, enough room for 4 ladyfinger layers. Start with 4 ladyfingers, pour coffee over it until soaked, then add creamy mixture and repeat. Should make 3 layers. Finish off with chocolate powder and keep in refrigerator for 2 hrs.

Let me know if you like it! Enjoy

Look what the Lord has done

Jesus you have brought me this far... Let's back track 4 1/2 years ago. I moved to NYC in May 2006 to pursue modeling. I had an agency in Miami, Chicago and NYC. I moved to Harlem were I had 2 roommates. Little did I know the 140 block seemed to be a hot one, where drug transactions would be a daily thing. About a month later I had a photo shoot with Essence Magazine. One of the models was a Christian and invited me to the Brooklyn Tabernacle. I was already in search for a church, what a perfect timing. In June 2006 I was at a crossroad and said no to the world and gave my life to Jesus, hallelujah! At the present time I was modeling and worked as a waitress at a Coffee and juice spot called Society. In January 2007 I became an assistant manager at Society the coffee shop. On September 2007 me and my friend Kathleen were invited to the Transitions young adult Retreat. I was already going to BT for a bout a year, but weren't really connected at the church. After the ...

Language of love

Missions trip Pila Laguna Philippines July 2nd-13th 2010 Let me tell you about my little boy Chip-Chris-Christopher (we kept mixing up his name) but he responded to all 3 of them. Chris is 9 years old. I met him for the first time in November 2007, when he was 6 years old. He is so handsome. He has the cutest smile that will melt your heart away and a lazy eye that makes him unique. Chris has as far as I know 5 or more siblings. Him and his family live in the squatter areas. I believe he is still in first grade and it's hard for the family to fund for Chris to go to school. He does not speak english very well, so it was hard to communicate with each other. Chris delights in singing and dancing, I have watched him sing worship songs with all of his heart. I would hear his voice stick out and I was very encouraged to see him still around. I pray that God will open a door for him to be used at the church in Pila Laguna called PCAT (Pila Christ Agape Tabernacle). My husband and I wen...

A Wife of Noble Character

I started of the year by studying Proverbs 31:10-31. What a tremendous blessing and true example of a great wife, a wonderful mother and passionate women of God. I have learned many valuable lessons and received great reminders, which I can’t wait to apply. Proverbs 31:10-31 10 Who can find a virtuous and capable wife? She is more precious than rubies. 11 Her husband can trust her, and she will greatly enrich his life. 12 She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life. 13 She finds wool and flax and busily spins it. 14 She is like a merchant’s ship, bringing her food from afar. 15 She gets up before dawn to prepare breakfast for her household and plan the day’s work for her servant girls. 16 She goes to inspect a field and buys it; with her earnings she plants a vineyard. 17 She is energetic and strong, a hard worker. 18 She makes sure her dealings are profitable; her lamp burns late into the night.   19 Her hands are busy spinning thread,...
