Family loved it. Not too sweet so it was perfect for those who do not eat many sweets in the family

Quick, easy and a real winner. I always get requests for this recipe (wish I could say it was really mine but I give credit where credit is due).

I use fat free pound cake and fat free ricotta chesse and this cake is wonderful. And very easy to make. I've given the recipe to everyone I tell about the cake.

It was very delicious. My mom loved it and she asked to make another for an Italian dinner she will have at home.

I think that you need twice as much of the coffee mix to have enough, and the texture wasn't that great. Everyone ate it, but as a huge fan of tiramisu, I probably wouldn't use this recipe again.
