Mini Tiramisu Eclairs
Why I Love This Recipe
I'm not sure where I got this but it is basically individual tiramisus.
Ingredients You'll Need
1/3 cup hot water
2 teaspoons instant coffee granules
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 (3-ounce) packages ladyfingers, split
1 (8-ounce) package mascarpone cheese*
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar, divided
2 tablespoons chocolate syrup
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate morsels
1 tablespoon butter

Directions
Stir together first 3 ingredients until sugar is dissolved; set aside 2 tablespoons mixture. Brush cut sides of ladyfingers evenly with remaining coffee mixture.
Stir together mascarpone cheese, 1/2 cup powdered sugar, and chocolate syrup until blended.
Spoon or pipe mascarpone cheese mixture evenly onto 24 cut sides of ladyfinger halves; top with remaining ladyfinger halves, cut sides down.
Microwave chocolate morsels, butter, and cream at HIGH 30 seconds or until melted, stirring twice.

Snip a tiny hole in 1 corner of bag, and drizzle over éclairs.
Let stand until firm.
