I am lactose intolerant so the typical tiramisu is off-limits unless I take my magic pills! Plus, the typical tiramisu is a bit too rich for my taste. I came up with this for a graduation party and we all loved it! Hope you enjoy it as much as we did

How To Make shortcut tiramisu cake

  • 1
    Prepare cake mix as directed on box, baking in two circle layer pans. Let cool.
  • 2
    Once cooled, poke holes using a fork into both layers, then pour 1/2 cup of the coffee over each layer.
  • 3
    Beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the 1/2 cup remaining coffee. Fold in the cool whip. If yours looks really watery I suggest you stick this in the freezer a few minutes before icing the cake.
  • 4
    Frost between the layers then all around. I like to serve this cake slightly frozen, but chilled it is just as good. Just remember that you can't leave it out too long due to the cool whip :-D
