PELE - My imagination run amok

[oldcoot]

Among my favorite desserts are miratisu, botson cream pie, chocolate mousse, cherries jubilee, and baked Alaska. So I said to myself "Self!" (been watching too much Emeril!) - why not combine all of them into a single, decadent dessert?

So I took a shot at it just for fun this morning. Not a total success, but not a complete failure, either. And quite good! (Considerable Kalua and brandy) Named it "Pele", (pay-lay) the Hawaiian fire goddess. (It's supposed to resemble a volcano).

If anyone's interested, I'll post the recipe.

Hey, I had fun!

you mean tiramisu (miratisu) right?

Kewl oldcoot - post the recipe - what an adventure this dessert must have been!!!

Yes, Ironchef- between uncontrollable fingers and lousy eyesight, I'm lucky to post anything comprehensible. TIRAMISU.

'Elf, I made a flock of mistakes on that first try. I'll do it again soon and then post a more dependable (I hope) recipe).

As I made but two of the darned things, it was a very wasteful (waist full?) project. Most of the cake and the mousse left over, and neither of us could finish the thing - too rich and too filling.

But tasted pretty good!
