No-Bake Italian Tiramisu Parfait - Butterfingers Kitchen

Tiramisu is one of the first western desserts that I got to try, and it was pretty much love at first taste ;) The combination of coffee and liquor is probably one of the best discovery in the culinary world. I don't see any reason why one should not love this dessert.

There are so many different Tiramisu recipes, but today I bring to you one of the easiest, but still palatable, recipe. This is also a perfect gift for your loved ones. Just use a small major jar as the container then put on the lid and deliver it to the lucky recipient ;)
