Steps:
- First make the sponge. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C /gas 4).
- Whisk the sugar and eggs until they are at ribbon stage. Fold in the melted butter, then fold in the sifted flour and cocoa. Pour the mixture into a lined Swiss roll tin and bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove the sponge from the oven when it is done and leave to cool.
- To make the filling, put the mascarpone, sugar, egg yolks, and Vin Santo into a bowl and mix until smooth.
- To assemble the tiramisu, break up the sponge and press it into the bottom of a shallow dish. Drizzle over the coffee, Tia Maria, and white chocolate. Spoon over the mascarpone filling, then dust liberally with cocoa. Using a large knife, scrape the chocolate towards you to make shavings and arrange these delicately over the top.

Steps:
- Simmer the Splenda and water, stirring only once, for 5 minutes. While that is simmering start whipping the egg yolks in a stand mixer. Once the sugar has simmered for 5 minutes and has started to thicken slowly pour it into the egg yolks while still whipping.
- Whip until room temperature and tripled in volume.
- Add the mascarpone cheese and 2 TBLS chocolate syrup. Whip until thick and creamy.(The mixture will seem to break at first, but continue to whip and it will come together.).
- Fold in the Cool Whip and place in the refrigerator.
- Simmer the coffee and the 1/4 cup chocolate syrup until combined. Add the rum and coffee liquor, simmer for 2 minutes. Let cool for about 5 minutes in the refrigerator.
- Rough chop the cherries.
- Take the mascarpone mixture and coffee mixture out of the refrigerator. Dip the lady fingers into the coffee mixture (allow the coffee to just soak through the cookie, not too dry, not too soggy) and place in a single layer on the bottom of an 8x8 square baking dish. Top with half the chopped cherries then spread half the mascarpone mixture over the top. Continue with one more layer of the soaked cookies, cherries and cream.
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Tips and Conclusion
Tips:
- Use a high-quality coffee for the best flavor. Look for a dark roast with a bold flavor.
- Make sure your mascarpone is cold before you start making the filling. This will help it whip up light and fluffy.
- Don't overbeat the egg whites. If they are overbeaten, they will become dry and stiff.
- Use a springform pan to make the tiramisu. This will make it easy to remove the tiramisu from the pan once it is set.
- Chill the tiramisu for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the tiramisu to set properly.
