This is not authentic, but it is a fast, easy to make and very tasty version of Venice's favorite cheesecake. It comes from the Magic of Jell-O. The name means "pick me up". Also try substituting vanilla wafers for the lady fingers. If you do, reduce the coffee to 1/2 cup because the wafers won't absorb the liquid as well.

- Add cheese and coffee liqueur and beat until smooth.
- Cover with plastic wrap and chill 1 hour.
- Fold in whipped topping.
- In a small shallow dish, stir sugar into coffee and dip each ladyfinger in for only 4-5 seconds (letting them soak too long will make them fall apart).
