Author Notes
Tiramisu has been always been my favourite dessert. Whenever I eat at Italian restaurants, I go straight to the dessert menu to check if they have tiramisu and if so, I'll base what I order for my main around that. I'm obsessed. My version is classic – nothing too crazy, just really, really delicious. —Jordan Rondel, The Caker

Layer the sponge fingers in each until you have used up half. Spread over half the creamy mixture. Using a cheese grater, grate three-quarters of the chocolate into the serving glasses.
