With a chocolatey twist: tiramisu. The traditional lady finger cookies are replaced with Oreos® and then dipped in alcohol. Speaking of which, a dessert with a cup of alcohol in it (the former is definitely not boiled off) is pretty potent; use caution!

Ingredients
- 4 egg yolks
- ½ cup white sugar
- ½ cup port wine
- 1 pound mascarpone cheese
- 1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream, whipped
- ¼ cup coffee-flavored liqueur (such as Kahlua®)
- ¼ cup spiced rum (such as Kraken®)
- 1 (15.5 ounce) package chocolate sandwich cookies (such as Oreo®)
- 2 tablespoons bitter cocoa powder
Instructions
- Beat egg yolks in the bowl of a double boiler until fluffy. Beat sugar into egg yolks until incorporated; beat in wine. Heat egg mixture over the double boiler until the cream thickens and small bubbles appear, about 5 minutes.
- Stir the mascarpone cheese with a rubber spatula in a bowl until creamy. Pour egg mixture over the cheese; beat until filling is smooth.
- Beat cream in a bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form; fold into cheese mixture.
- Combine coffee-flavored liqueur and rum in a small bowl. Dunk enough cookies in the liquor to create a layer across the bottom of a baking pan; arrange cookies in the baking pan to create a cake base. Cover cookies with half of the filling. Dunk a second layer of cookies; arrange on the filling. Top with remaining filling; sprinkle with cocoa powder.
- Place in the refrigerator until chilled, 3 to 4 hours.
- A sweet wine of your choice can be substituted for Porto wine, if desired.
