Baby Tiramisu

A friend passed this delicious recipe along to me last night. They had made some over the weekend and they tasted even better than they look! I found it on delish.com also.

From EatingWell.com
If you’re a fan of the classic Italian dessert tiramisu, try this quick, lower-calorie variation the next time you need a dessert in a hurry. Both types of ladyfingers — spongy and crunchy — work well.

Ingredients
   
    * 1/2 cup(s) nonfat ricotta cheese (4 ounces)
    * 2 tablespoon(s) confectioners' sugar
    * 1/2 teaspoon(s) vanilla extract
    * 1/8 teaspoon(s) ground cinnamon
    * 12  ladyfingers (about 1 3/4 ounces)
    * 4 tablespoon(s) brewed espresso or strong coffee, divided
    * 2 tablespoon(s) bittersweet chocolate chips, melted (see Tip)

Directions

   1. Combine ricotta, sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon in a medium bowl.
   2. Place 6 ladyfingers in a 9-by-5-inch (or similar size) loaf pan. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons espresso (or coffee). Spread the ricotta mixture over the ladyfingers. Place another layer of ladyfingers over the ricotta and drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons espresso (or coffee). Drizzle with melted chocolate. Refrigerate until the chocolate is set, about 30 minutes.
