tkarinas--why do you even send in a revue? You are not reviewing the recipe. Pay attention! This is delicious.

next time I will add a little bit more coffee mix to the crumbled cookies on the bottom. I thought they were too crunchy, other than that it was quick and easy !

I'm sure the recipe is good BUT you really shouldn't call it tiramisu. Tiramisu is made with brandy, coffee, chocolate and cream. This is NOT tiramisu! This is a pudding treat.

I agree with every single review except the one from tkarinas. Just a suggestion, this is to rate a recipe you have tried or based on would try because it is something you like. I also love tiramisu. This was so incredibly easy and yummy, yummy, yummy... oh did I say it was good???

Fantastic, simple, healthy and delicious. I agree with those of you who questioned why tkarinas would review a recipe for a treat she/he would never have in her/his home or why Taste of Home would even accept his/her non review.
