CARAMEL PUMPKIN TIRAMISU FOR TWO

Caramel Pumpkin Tiramisu for Two image

I'm not fond of traditional tiramisu, so I used pumpkin and bourbon in place of coffee and it's absolutely fabulous. I always make extra sauce and eat it over vanilla ice cream. It's so good, I can't leave it alone! -Mary Filipiak, Fort Wayne, Indiana
