Henshin! Tiramisu in Cake Form

Due to recently addicted to Kamen Rider Den-O, that's how the tittle named which is very suitable because I don't want to mix up the Tiramisu and "Tiramisu" cake that available in common bakery/cake shop.

For the, I refused to call those "tiramisu" cake in those bakery/cake shop according to the price and the most important is the ingredient, of course!
You can find 9 out of 10 shops not using the proper/traditional ingredient to make a "tiramisu" cake. So, what the most important ingredient of a Tiramisu? Italian cheese, mascarpone cheese, that's it =]

Since you can't find any real Tiramisu cake in those shop, I gonna share this recipe here, transform a Tiramisu into cake form ^.^
