TIA MARIA TORTE
This beautiful and scrumptious dessert is sure to be a crowd pleaser and a lovely holiday dessert. As an added bonus, it's easy to make. While I make my own cookies from scratch, you could certainly use store-bought chocolate chip cookies in a crunch. For those unfamiliar, Tia Maria is a (non creamy)coffee flavoured liqueur - you can use cheaper varieties but they don't taste as good, imho. I often use a springform for this but you could also do it on a nice cakeplate.
