Low Fat Tiramisu Recipe

Tiramisu is an Italian dessert consisting of layers of sponge cake soaked with coffee and brandy or liqueur layered with mascarpone cheese and topped with grated chocolate. This version is lighter than its traditional recipe, substituting a reduced fat cream filling for much of the mascarpone

To make the cream filling:

1 Cup 2% milk

1/4 Teaspoon of cinnamon

2 Teaspoons of a good vanilla bean paste

1/4 Cup sugar, plus 3 tablespoons for beating the egg whites

1 1/2 Tablespoons cornstarch

3 eggs, 1 whole egg, plus two egg whites, discard the yolks

Reserve 300 ml of the milk and bring the rest to the boil in a large heavy based or non-based or non-stick saucepan.  Simmer until the milk is reduced by half, stirring from time to time to ensure that any skin or solids that cling to the side of the pan we well mixed with the milk.
