I know! Whos ever heard of a triple layed cupcake? Who could think of something so cute?
This recipe comes from my Womens Weekly Cupcake Cookbook.
Tiramisu is a great desert and also makes a pretty darn tasty cupcake.
The recipe calls for vanilla buttercakes cute into four layers, I only did 3 layers as my cakes were so little I didn't want then to crumble away because they were sliced to finely. The layers are painted with coffee and stacked together with marscapone cheese.
These are devilish little cakes let me tell you. You will want more than one, but isn't that always the way with Tiramisu?
PS I left out the liquor, I don't really like having uncooked alcohol in food that my children may eat, even if it's only tiny amounts.
