Eggless Semi HomemadeTiramisu ~ Superhit No Hassel Recipe~

Know What You Eat: Tiramisu literally means "pick me up". The most heavenly Italian dessert on earth with fancy taste without all the work. This dessert is wonderful for a get together or just a special occasion at home. As you all know Tiramisu is a layered dessert, consisting of alternating layers of coffee-soaked Savoiardi biscuits and sweet mixture of mascarpone cheese and eggs and sugar. A BIG BUT, I am a vegetarian and thats how it made me think to come up with a vegetarian tiramisu option, when I had this Italian Christmas dinner party and so I googled a lot of these recipes before exploring into this one, which perfectly fits to my needs, taste and appearance...I used a box of cake mix which happened to be a real time saver and EGG LESS too.. instead of the lady fingers (Savoiardi biscuits), FAT FREE Cream Cheese (hung curd is a good option), Vanilla / Cheesecake pudding OR (Custard mix Brown & Polson is great option). Of Course ! there are countless variations and options available.  Here's how I made.
