This delicious dessert was a hit at our house tonight. Absolutely loved it and it is so easy to make. Will definitely be making this dessert again for guests, holidays and potlucks. I'm saving the spoon just for me : ) Delish! Made for Culinary Quest, 2014 - Italy.

This was very easy to make and tasted wonderful. I needed to use up some angelfood cake so I substituted for the lady fingers.

This was really easy and delicious! I used low fat cream cheese to cut down a little on fat. I couldn't find ladyfingers, so I substituted a loaf pound cake that I had frozen previously. DD's piano teacher loves coffee, so I took her some. She couldn't wait to eat it!! Thanks, Charmie!
