Spiced Pumpkin Tiramisu
I added pumpkin and subtracted some of the coffee flavor in a tiramisu I developed for a special holiday dinner. A new Christmas tradition was born! —Heather Clary, Downingtown, Pennsylvania

Reviews
Nice tiramisu recipe that omits the traditional addition of raw egg yolks in the custard. The only negative thing about the recipe is the 1 cup of water added to the coffee
A great spin on tiramisu. I love pumpkin and this was light and airy and delicious! I cut it in half and put it in an 8 x 8 pan. It was perfect.
This recipe was a hit at my book club gathering. I used a 9-in square dish instead of the recommended 13x9 and needed a total of 63 ladyfingers (3 layers of 21). The dipping of the cookies into the coffee mixture does take some practice. I ruined quite a few ladyfingers before I found my rhythm. lol
Yummy and very refreshing!
Very light pumpkin flavor! Good change on tiramisu. Not to mention this dessert has such a beautiful presentation and it worked out perfectly for our x xmas party.
Outstanding!! I made this instead of pumpkin pie this year. I followed the recipe exactly as described (the Alessi Ladyfingers were a little tricky to find but I got them at Stop and Shop, in with the seasonal food). The only thing I had to do differently was break off about an inch of the end of the cookies in the last row to to make them fit in my 13x9 pan. I made the dessert the night before since we had to travel the next day. It was absolutely amazing!! I love pumpkin pie but this knocked everyone's socks off. I can't wait to make it again for my office party in a few weeks, I will look like a genius. Thank you!!!
Best tiramisu ever! I added a bit more pumpkin (probably about 1/3 cup more) and some pumpkin pie spice and it was just amazing. THIS is my every year Thanksgiving dessert. The Frangelico is a wonderful touch.
I made this recipe, I don't see how they got layers out of the amount the recipe called for. I had to double the recipe to make two layers in my 9x13 inch casserole dish. Aside from that problem it turned out wonderful! I made some modifications, I used two teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice instead of all the separate ingredients, in each batch of the layers. I also changed the dipping recipe. I used 1/4 cup rum, 1/4 cup maple syrup,1 cup water,1 cup coffee and 2/3 cup dark brown sugar 1/2 cinnamon stick and 1/4 tsp nutmeg, after it cooled I added pumpkin latte creamer that gave it the flavor I was looking to meld the flavors together. I topped it with homemade crushed pistachio brittle to give a little crunchy texture to a soft desert!! A real keeper, Sew-crazy
