- One always needs a go-to dessert recipe handy, especially in times of pandemic, when the risk of ordering out, out-weighs the reward. I am not a dessert person at all, but I love dessert which are not too sweet and easy to make. Tiramisu checks all my boxes.
This is a SUPER EASY 6 ingredient recipe. It's a no bake, no cook, no egg recipe.
Trust me, I have shared this recipe with so many people and they all love it and swear by it. Detailed recipe is below, as is the video.

- Repeat the above two steps on more time.

My tips
- Packed cream doesnt whip to soft cream. It HAS TO BE WHIPPING Cream.
- I use non-dairy whipping cream, for its never failed me. Rich's. D'licia, Star whip are a few brands available in the market.
- You can also use Amul whipping cream but never seem to get my hands on it especially during lockdown.
- The cream and cheese MUST be chilled.
Bon Appetite
