  3. Beat heavy cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Fold into cream cheese mixture. Spoon into a zip-top plastic bag. (Do not seal.) Snip 1 corner of bag with scissors to make a hole (about 1/2 inch in diameter).

    You got it! We’ll start working on them and get them posted, thanks Shara! 🙂

  3. When you said “raspberry tiramisu”, I took a double-take thinking there might be coffee involved with raspberry, but then I noticed the orange liqueur!

    I’m guessing mascarpone would be a good substitution instead of plain Philly or anything?

    Also, beautiful photographs!
