[…] our Tiramisu Panna Cotta recipe a try! It couples your two favorite Italian desserts into one tasty […]
Can this be made ahead? How far ahead and would you add truffle at the last?
You can make this up to four days in advance. The chocolate sauce truffle and garnish should be added just before serving.
Thanks for the tiramisu recipe
