Easy Tiramisu Parfaits

If you love Tiramisu, you’ll love Easy Tiramisu Parfaits. This is definitely my take on Tiramisu. When I created this recipe, I couldn’t find ladyfingers in my small town grocery store so I replaced them with Milano Dulce de Leche cookies. 

My recipe ideas for Tiramisu Parfaits changed about five times during the creation of this layered dessert. I couldn’t find any mascarpone in my small town. I’m not even going there.

Then I couldn’t find ladyfingers, which is a given in Tiramisu. Even with all of those hiccups, these Easy Tiramisu Parfaits are so delicious. 

Since Tiramisu means Pick Me Up, I decided to pick mine up a little more by adding Dulce De Leche Milano Cookies in place of the ladyfingers. I know Dulce De Leche is more of an Argentinian thing, but trust me, these parfaits are amazing.

The Milano cookies add a new dimension to my Easy Tiramisu Parfaits and a whole lot of flavor. Move over, Michelangelo, I’ve created a masterpiece! These Easy Tiramisu Parfaits are pure decadence.

There’s just something about presenting individual desserts that always garners excitement among my guests. Maybe it’s the thought that they get to have the whole thing all to themselves.

Ingredients For Easy Tiramisu Parfait

How To Make Chocolate Shavings For Tiramisu Parfaits

To make chocolate shavings, place a candy bar in the freezer for one minute.

Use a vegetable peeler to shave the chocolate down the side.

Repeat until you have enough shavings to top the parfaits.

Top with a Milano Cookie and chocolate shavings before serving. My family loves these parfaits!
