Ingredients

• 24 pieces Whole wheat ladyfingers
• 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 cup Strong freshly brewed coffee
• 2 ounces Dark chocolate (70% cacao or higher)
• 1 cup Low-fat Greek yogurt
• 0.75 cup Low-fat ricotta cheese
• 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
• 0.25 cup Honey
• 0.25 cup Almond milk
• 2 tablespoons Chopped almonds

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine the brewed coffee and 1 tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder, stirring well. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.

Step 2

In a double boiler, melt the dark chocolate over low heat until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, ricotta cheese, vanilla extract, and honey. Mix until well blended. Add the almond milk and melted chocolate into the yogurt mixture, stirring until creamy and smooth.

Step 4

Dip each ladyfinger briefly into the coffee mixture, ensuring they are soaked but not too soft. Arrange half of the soaked ladyfingers in a single layer at the bottom of an 8x8 inch baking dish.

Step 5

Spread half of the yogurt-chocolate mixture evenly over the layer of ladyfingers.

Step 6

Repeat the process with the remaining ladyfingers, creating another layer and then covering with the remaining yogurt-chocolate mixture.

Step 7

Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to meld together and the tiramisu to set.

Step 8

Prior to serving, dust the top with the remaining tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder and sprinkle with chopped almonds for garnish.

Step 9

Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy your heart-healthy dessert!
