I love to experiment in the kitchen and this Buñuelo Tiramisu makes it to the top of my lest of one of the best things I have ever created. It is made with My Nana’s Best Tasting Buñuelos and is absolutely delicious with just the right amount of sweetness. It’s also a showstopper dessert presented in a trifle dish with the beautiful layers on display. And it’s pretty easy to make and assemble too.
