Tiramisu

TIRAMISU This is a sofisticated coffee flavoured layered Italian dessert . Tiramisu means ' cheer me up ' . Indeed it lives up to its name . It's comfort in every bite . A bite into it  , will pepp you up .        The kick of the coffee from the biscuits dipped in it  and the luscious  creamy texture of the cheese are incorporated beautifully together in harmony.           Tiramisu can be served in individual bowls, glasses or set in a shallow dish .

The design on the star cake was a totally unexpected one, which I could not recreate again, though there has been no compromise on the taste and texture.          I have treated my colleagues to the zebra cake and it had been highly appreciated. The recipes for both the cakes are same, but for the methods, as mentioned in the recipes. I hope you enjoy baking this recipe and share your experience. DRY INGREDIENTS Refined flour - 2.5 cup Baking powder - 2 tsp Baking soda - 1.5 tsp Cocoa powder - 2 tbsp Custard powder - 1 tbsp Cornflour - 1 tbsp Dry fruits like Tutti Frutti, Raisins, Cashews, Coconut flakes, Almonds, Pistachios WET INGREDIENTS (Cream together these wet ingredients in a separate bowl) Sugar - 2 cups Oil -1 cup Vanilla e...
