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
Italian Dessert Cannoli Recipe
Cannolis are a great Italian dessert and they were said to have been developed by Sicilians in Palermo, Italy. These fried wafers are filled with a mixture of ricotta, candied fruit, chocolate, and other ingredients, and they are very, very tasty!
Sicilians are supposed to have created this great dessert recipe, and I think that they are just delicious. I hope that this recipe is fairly easy to follow. You will need some type of dowel or metal tube that you will use to form out your cannoli shells. If you have a 3 ½ inch in diameter ring or even a 3 inch ring, you will need this to form the shape of your shells, also. You will also need a deep fryer, or a pan that is deep enough for these shells to float in oil.
