This is a quick and simplified version of tiramisu.  You can put it in a nice wine glass and I am sure your dinner guests will be impressed !

• 1 cup mascarpone cheese
• 1/4 cup icing sugar
• 1 tablespoon instant coffee
• 1 teaspoon of granulated sugar if desire
• 6-8 lady fingers
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

1. Dissolve coffee in about 2 tablespoons of hot water, add a teaspoon of granulated sugar to sweeten slightly if desire, place coffee in a shallow plate
2. Cut lady fingers in smaller pieces to fit in glass
3. Beat cheese and sugar together for about 3 minutes until creamy and smooth
4. Dip lady fingers into coffee
5. Layer cheese, lady fingers, cocoa powder in glass

If you cannot find mascarpone cheese, you can substitute it with cream cheese. You can dip the lady fingers for a longer time in the coffee if you want a stronger coffee taste.
