Tiramisù is a famous italian dessert. It means "pull me up"! Traditionally made from savoiardi or ladyfingers, espresso coffee, mascarpone cheese, eggs, sugar, and often marsala wine. The biscuits are sprinkled with strong coffee and the marsala, and then embedded in a thick rich custard. Sometimes chocolate is also used, but that is not traditional.
