Amazing Tiramisu
This is the williams-sonoma tiramisu recipe and i made it once for a very good italian friend of mine who was renowned for her tiramisu. She quietly mentioned to me that she thought this was, in fact, better than hers! Never heard a complaint yet, a definite winner!

In a chilled large mixing bowl , beat the cream to stiff peaks.

One at a time , submerge each ladyfinger into the remaining espresso , then it on the bottom of a 6-quart glass or ceramic baking or serving dish.
