Since I live in Japan and couldn't find Ladyfingers, I had to make my own sponge cake. I used the following recipe for the sponge cake from Emeril's Tiramisu recipe. The You Tube link is the recipe I used for the rest of the Tiramisu. I tasted the Tiramisu creme and it was soo yummy. I can't wait until tomorrow to taste everything together.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake

My husband got a chocolate chip cookie cake this year for his birthday per his request. He is much more of a cookie man than a cake man. He even ate a piece before we went to dinner.
