A refreshing and delicious tiramisu with strawberries
About this recipe
Serve this fabulous favorite featuring Strawberries with ladyfingers and delicious Tiramisu, the Italian version of cream cheese

Isn't this pretty ?

You will simply love this dessert!

Serve this dessert in individual glasses to make your guest feel so special !

And I find this more refreshing than the classic Tiramisu with coffee.
In general, my pastry-experience is that boys dig the classic coffee Tiramisu, while girls prefer this strawberry version
