Inspired

I went to Kroger yesterday and saw some ladyfingers on sale. I've never bought them before but I immediately thought of Tiramisu. I LOVE tiramisu!! I went over to the cheese section and looked at mascarpone cheese. It's so expensive. So, I got inspired to do a different (cheaper- 'cause I'm cheap!) version of this delicious Italian dessert. I used cream cheese instead.

Then, I came home, and got inspired to do something even more different! Tiramisu is coffee flavored. I decided to make 2 different flavors: the original coffee one and a green tea one! I've never made a tiramisu in my life and I have to say they were both very good! You couldn't tell I substituted cream cheese for mascarpone. As for the green tea one, I think I'll be making that again.
