Classic Tiramisu – The Only Tiramisu Recipe You’ll Ever Need

Classic Tiramisu – The Only Tiramisu Recipe You’ll Ever Need
I’m excited to update one of my favorite recipes of ALL time. This post from early 2012 truly is the best tiramisu recipe you will find. It’s simple yet incredibly delicious and always a hit at any dinner party. If you’re having people over for the holidays, you won’t be disappointed with this classic tiramisu recipe. The original post is below:

In recent years I’ve seen tiramisu recipes adding whipped cream, lemon or even cream cheese. In my opinion those additions only take away from the flavor. I believe the best tasting tiramisu should be simple and traditional made with quality ingredients. This recipe has been in my husband’s family for over 20 years and we’ve never changed a thing, that’s how good it is! I don’t make this too often, as it is not the healthiest dessert out there but I decided to make a smaller personal size using only eight ounces of mascarpone cheese.

I made the pies even healthier using natural agave nectar and almond milk.

Pumpkin Cornbread with Coconut Oil and Cinnamon

Pumpkin Cornbread with Coconut Oil and CinnamonI’m officially in pumpkin mode (see my last two pumpkin recipes here and here). I still had half a can of pumpkin puree left, so I scoured my Pinterest boards and came upon a simple recipe from the blog The Comfort of Cooking. I changed it up a bit and used coconut oil, agave nectar and a touch of cinnamon for some extra spice kick. It turned out super yummy. My husband loved it and wanted to eat the whole batch on the first day!
