Popular dessert eggless tiramisu is a rendition of the classic Italian tiramisu recipe without the use of raw eggs. Instead, soaked ladyfinger biscuits are layered with a mixture of whipped cream, sugar, coffee, rum/brandy, mascarpone cheese, and coffee. The dessert is then chilled for a few hours or overnight in the refrigerator to allow the flavors to meld and the biscuits to soften. Before serving, the dessert's top is dusted with cocoa powder, which gives the creamy filling a different texture and a hint of chocolate flavor. The end result is a decadent dessert that is rich, creamy, and slightly boozy tasting.The eggless version is ideal for those who are allergic to eggs or prefer not to consume raw eggs.
