INSTRUCTIONS
Ganache Drizzle:

Tiramisu:
Line the base of your loaf pan or round tin with chocolate chip cookies. Using a squeeze bottle, pour small amount the cooled coffee over the top. Too much coffee will make the cookies soggy.
In a bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla with a hand mixer until smooth.
Add the shot of cooled espresso and mix well.
Add the heavy cream and mix until it starts to thicken. Don't overmix, or the filling may split. Stop once you reach firm peaks.
Pipe or spoon half the filling over the soaked chocolate chip cookies. Drizzle with ganache and dust with cocoa powder.
Add a second layer of chocolate chip cookies and pour over a small amount the cooled coffee over the top. Too much coffee will make the cookies soggy.
Pipe or spoon the remaining filling over the second layer of chocolate chip cookies.
Cover and refrigerate for 6 hours, or overnight.
When ready to serve, drizzle with the chocolate ganache sauce, dust with cocoa powder, and top with cookie pieces. Slice and serve.
NOTES
Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Not suitable for freezing.
Use the coffee sparingly when soaking each cookie layer. Too much coffee will make the cookies soggy rather than softened.
