Pound-Cake Tiramisu

The title will take you to where I found the photo, but the recipe is from marthastewart.com

Well, it worked out really well with the previous entry, Buttermilk Pound Cake. I took the pound cake and sliced a couple of layers off to build the Tiramisu. This has to be refrigerated about 4 hours before serving, so that gave me plenty of time to work on dinner. Yeah!
