Tiramisu Cheesecake is a dreamy and so very creamy Cheesecake ~ never fail recipe ! With substitution suggestions for a non-alcoholic version as well.
This is a little different than the normal Tiramisu, but I actually prefer this Tiramisu Cheesecake recipe. It is easy to serve when cut into bars and makes a delicious addition to a sweet party platter.
The Marsala wine can be substituted with Kahlua or any coffee based liqueur. Or if you do not want any alcohol, increase and substitute with coffee.
And the cheesecake top is unbelievably creamy ! You can see the soaked cake bottom, which is absolutely decadent.
Combined with the creamiest cheesecake layer, this is always a winner.
Whether I serve the Tiramisu Cheesecake for dessert, or when I need to take a dessert with to a family gathering.
And everyone always asks for the recipe ! That is one sure way to tell your dish was a winner – when guests start asking for the recipe.
That is another reason I am glad I have the blog. And a smart phone, of course !
When someone wants the recipe, it is there on your phone, and ten to one your family already follows you and can look it up themselves if you give them the proper name to search.

Depending on your cut, this recipe will give you 15 – 20 servings – perfect to take along to a family gathering !
