Mascherpone substitute
Am thinking of making tiramisu for Passover,since there were Passover ladyfingers available. But I know I won't find kosher mascherpone. Online recipes for substitutes use cream cheese, heavy cream and either butter orsour cream, and I'm notsure whichway to go (butter or sourcream). Any thoughts? Thanks!

the other major thing is adding vanilla to soften the cream cheese flavor. i have also used almond extract. and if you want to fluff it up even more - about a 1/3 cup confectionery sugar.
i am a terrible jew and cannot recall all the dietary restrictions for pasover but i believe everything fits!
