This is the perfect recipe for those who are craving tiramisu but concerned about the calories. Substituting mascarpone cheese with Greek yogurt will cut calories and fat without sacrificing the creamy goodness! It’s healthy, yummy, and high in protein!

Ingredients

1. Combine the espresso (or coffee) and coffee liquor in a small bowl. On a baking sheet or plate, lay out the lady fingers and drizzle with the coffee mixture you just made. Let them soak.

2. Vigorously whisk egg yolks and sugar in a bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water until it doubles in volume. It will take about 5 min using a handheld electric mixer at medium speed. Remove from heat and let it cool.

3. In a different bowl, beat cream until stiff peaks form.

4. In a large bowl, lightly whisk the yogurt. Once the yolk mixture has cooled, slowly incorporate the yolk mixture into the yogurt. Then, gently fold in half of the whipped cream into the yogurt mixture. Fold in the remaining half until smooth.

5. Arrange half of soaked ladyfingers in bottom of a dish. Spread half of yogurt mixture over ladyfingers. Repeat layers.

6. Sprinkle cocoa evenly over the top. Cover and refrigerate 2- 4 hours until set.
