I made these for Thanksgiving for my diabetic father and they are wonderful. I actually found the recipe on dlife.com. That recipe did specify to leave the cool whip frozen. Also, it showed the carbs at 2.7 g per serving. I will make these often!

I made this recipe for a Memorial Day boat party, and everybody loved them! They were gone in about 3 minutes. They were super easy to make, and I will definitely make them again.

I love tiramisu so just had to try this. Since I'm not a coffee drinker, I keep instant coffee around for recipes like this. I cut this in half and used 1/8 tsp instant coffee dissolved in 2 Tbsp hot water, which was just enough coffee flavor for me. The only change I made was using regular superfine sugar in place of the Splenda. I also added a sprinkle of cocoa on top to dress them up. Thanks very much for the recipe mikekey!

These were wonderful! I just got back from Bible study where I shared these and they got rave reviews. Several people asked for the recipe and were amazed how easy they were to put together. Thank you for sharing!!

WOW mikekey ~ these are delicious little bites :) and so fast and easy to make. I made a half-recipe using 15 phyllo tart shells, so I have quite a bit of the filling left to experiment with. Very tasty and I love the fact that they are diabetic friendly. These would be great for a buffet dessert. Thanks for the great idea ~ made for PRMR August 2009!
