TIRAMISU 5 WW POINTS
5 WW points for THE WHOLE THING! Tiramisu is my favorite thing on earth, so I am excited to try this. I do intend to spike mine with 1oz of Kahlua or rum or Amaretto or even Grand Marnier. I'm also considering using Quark instead of the ricotta. Be sure to sweeten the espresso with a little splenda.
