• Spread the bottom half off the cake with half of the creamy cheese, in a fairly thick layer.
• Set the second half of the cake on the bottom half and repeat the process ~ sprinkle the coffee/liqueur blend and spread with the remaining cream cheese.

• Refrigerate the cake for at least two hours before cutting and serving.

TIRAMISU

Steps:

• Whisk the egg yolks and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment on high speed for about 5 minutes, or until very thick and light yellow. Lower the speed to medium and add 1/4 cup rum, 1/4 cup espresso, and the mascarpone. Whisk until smooth.
• Combine the remaining 1/4 cup rum and 1 1/4 cups espresso in a shallow bowl. Dip 1 side of each ladyfinger in the espresso/rum mixture and line the bottom of a 9 by 12 by 2-inch dish. Pour half the espresso cream mixture evenly on top. Dip 1 side of the remaining ladyfingers in the espresso/rum mixture and place them in a second layer in the dish. Pour the rest of the espresso cream over the top. Smooth the top and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight.
• Before serving, sprinkle the top with shaved chocolate and dust lightly with confectioners' sugar, if desired.

Steps:

• Whisk egg yolks and 4 tbsp sugar together in a mixing bowl. When the color turns clear, add mascarpone cheese and stir until consistency is smooth.
• Remove skin from pineapple with a large knife. Cut in half and remove core. Cut a 1 inch slice from the bottom. Place in a food processor with 2 tbsp sugar. Pulse until fruit is finely chopped and has released juice. Drain contents into a strainer and preserve juice. Discard chopped pineapple in strainer. Cut remaining pineapple into 1 inch slices.
• Roll 10 ladyfingers in pineapple juice. Do not allow them to sit in the liquid. Ladyfingers should be still firm. Place a layer of lady fingers in a round mold.
