I love Tiramisu. It is rich and delicious without being overly sweet. The coffee and rum added a distinct flavor that you will make you crave for this dessert over and over again. The spongy texture, the creamy custard, and smooth whipped cream are to die for! Dust with cocoa for aesthetic and added goodness.
