Cherry Tiramisu

Directions

1. 1
   Combine ricotta cheese, confectioners' sugar, sour cream and coffee liqueur in a large mixing bowl; mix well.

   Set aside. In the container of an electric blender or food processor, process cookies, in small batches, until finely crushed.
3. 3
   Remove 6 cherries from cherry filling; reserve for garnish. To assemble dessert, spoon 2 tablespoons ricotta cheese mixture into six 8-ounce parfait glasses.
4. 4
   Add 2 tablespoons cookie crumbs to each glass; top each with 2 tablespoons cherry filling. Repeat ricotta, crumb and cherry layers. Finish each serving with an equal portion of the remaining ricotta cheese mixture.
5. 5
   Garnish with reserved cherries, grated chocolate and mint leaves, if desired. Let chill 2 to 3 hours before servings.
