The February 2010 Daring Bakers challenge was hosted by Aparna of My Diverse Kitchen and Deeba of Passionate About Baking. They chose Tiramisu as the challenge for the month. Their challenge recipe is based on recipes from The Washington Post, Cordon Bleu at Home and Baking Obsession.

We always have plenty of time to complete the challenge. Even so form time to time I manage to do it at last minute. So it happened this month. I just started yesterday, too late! Because this challenge required about 2 to 3 days preparation time (including refrigeration) to the time the Tiramisù is served. Do you see the dilemma?

Psst, with some cheating, I managed to finish the challenge. As requested I did bake the ladyfingers. Of course the batter was too liquid and once in the oven it smelled like omelet. I mentioned this in the DB forum. Aparna was so kind calming me down. She wrote the smell of eggs will disappear in the finished Tiramisu. Then I prepared the zabaglione with Amaretto and the vanilla pastry cream, both without any problem. Of course there was no time to make the Mascarpone. Luckily I can buy it here and honestly making Mascarpone has nothing to do with baking, so I feel only a bit guilty I didn't make it. ;-)

It's marked Jack Daniels on the glasses I used Amaretto though! ;-)

Thanks to Aparna and Deeba for hosting!

To see the recipe please head over to the Daring Kitchen Headquarter. There you will also find all the Tiramisù my fellow Daring Bakers made.
