Pumpkin Tiramisu



3 Egg Yolks
2 tablespoons Sugar
8 oz Mascarpone Cheese
1 15 oz can Organic Pumpkin Puree
2 tablespoons Agave Nectar
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
Pinch of Salt
20-25 Lady Fingers, cut in half
1 1/2 cup strong coffee, cooled off
2 tablespoons Brandy
2 tablespoons Coco Powder

Add brandy to the coffee.  Set a side until ready to use.

Using a mixer, beat together egg yolks and sugar for about 3 minutes, until thick and pale.  Add mascarpone cheese and beat until smooth.  Then add pumpkin puree, agave, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.  Mix on medium speed, until thoroughly combined.

Dip each ladyfinger into coffee-brandy mixture for only 5 seconds.  Place the soaked lady finger on the bottom of a wine glass.  Add 2-3 tablespoons of mascarpone mixture over the lady fingers.  Repeat until the glass is full.  Sprinkle some Coco Powder.

Makes about 4-5 servings.

*I chose to make Tiramisu in individual wine glasses to give this desert an extra charm.  It's perfect for sharing.  So you can actually feed 8-10 people. 

If you are tiered of the old fashioned pumpkin pie, here is the whole new idea for you!!!
