I have always loved eclairs and what could be bad with a tiramisu eclair? Found in Southern Living Magazine, September 2003. Ingredients:
1/3 cup water |
2 teaspoons instant coffee granules |
2 tablespoons granulated sugar |
2 (3 ounce) packages ladyfingers, split |
8 ounces mascarpone cheese or 8 ounces cream cheese, softened |
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar, divided |
2 tablespoons chocolate syrup |
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate morsel |
1 tablespoon butter |
1 tablespoon whipping cream |
Directions:
1. Stir together first 3 ingredients until sugar is dissolved; set aside 2 tablespoons mixture. 2. Brush cut sides of ladyfingers evenly with remaining coffee mixture. 3. Stir together mascarpone cheese, 1/2 cup powdered sugar, and chocolate syrup until blended. 4. Spoon or pipe mascarpone cheese mixture evenly onto 24 cut sides of ladyfinger halves; top with remaining ladyfinger halves, cut sides down. 5. Microwave chocolate morsels, butter and cream at HIGH 30 seconds or until melted, stirring twice. 6. Place chocolate mixture in a small heavy-duty zip-top bag. 7. Snip a tiny hole in 1 corner of bag, and drizzle over eclairs. 8. Let stand until firm. 9. Stir together reserved coffee mixture and remaining 1 cup powdered sugar, stirring until blended. 10. Place coffee-powdered sugar mixture in small heavy duty zip-top bag; seal bag. 11. Snip a tiny hole in 1 corner of bag. 12. Drizzle eclairs evenly with coffee-powdered sugar mixture. 13. Place on a serving platter, cake stand, or in candy boxes, if desired. |
