21688 Tiramisu Dip 10 mins 10 mins 3 1/2 cups (8 to 10 servings) Thu Jun 04 08:46:00 -0700 2009 Tue Oct 06 11:32:52 -0700 2009 Easy American CHOW http://www.chow.com/recipes/21688 Tue, 06 Oct 2009 18:32:52 GMT All the flavor, none of the hassle All the flavor of the airy dessert but none of the hassle. By turning tiramisu into a dip, you skip all the hassle of making the traditional trifle without losing any of the flavor. We liked strawberries and various cookies as dipping instruments, but the dip could also be spooned into individual cups with a few ladyfingers for a quick, elegant dessert.

Game plan: The dip can be made up to 2 days in advance and refrigerated in a covered container.
