Individual Tiramisu Trifles

Becky Luigart-Stayner; Melanie J. Clarke and Celine Chenoweth
These parfaitlike desserts can be assembled the day before the party and need no last-minute garnishes.
Yield: 9 servings (serving size: 1 trifle)
Ingredients
- 1 cup cold strong brewed coffee
- 3 tablespoons Marsala wine
- 1 (8-ounce) block 1/3-less-fat cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup (4 ounces) block-style fat-free cream cheese, softened
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 30 cakelike ladyfingers (2 1/2 [3-ounce] packages)
- 1 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa
Preparation
Combine coffee and wine; set aside.
Place cheeses in a medium bowl; beat with a mixer at medium speed until smooth. Gradually add sugar, beating until well blended.
Cut each ladyfinger crosswise into 3 pieces. Arrange 5 ladyfinger pieces into each of 9 wineglasses or small bowls; drizzle each serving with about 1 tablespoon coffee mixture. Spoon about 1 1/2 tablespoons cheese mixture into each glass. Repeat layers once; sprinkle evenly with cocoa. Cover and chill at least 1 hour.

These trifles are delicious and surprisingly tiramisu-like! I recommend using espresso instead of coffee and topping them with Cool Whip. I also successfully substituted non-dairy soy sour cream (Tofuti brand is the best) for the real thing. A wonderful and easy dessert!08/24/05
