1. Beat cream in large bowl with electric mixer until frothy. Beat in
confectioner's sugar until soft peaks form. Transfer whipped cream to a
large wire mesh strainer lined with a coffee filter or cheesecloth; set
strainer over a bowl. Refrigerate up to several hours; (until ready to
assemble or serve).
2. Put cheese into small bowl; beat with electric mixer until light and
fluffy. Beat in about 1/2 of the whipped cream until smooth and light.
3. To assemble, divide crumbled ladyfingers among 4 serving dishes.
Sprinkle each with 1 Tablespoon of the coffee and 1/2 to 1 tablespoon of
the dark rum. Top each with 1/4 of the cheese mixture and 2 scoops of the
coffee ice cream. Freeze up to one hour before serving.
4. To serve, spoon remaining whipped cream into a pastry bag fitted with a
1/2 inch star-tip (or just dollop the whipped cream on top with a spoon!).
Spoon some chocolate sauce over each serving. Pipe or spoon some whipped
cream over all; sprinkle with 1 Tablespoon of the shaved chocolate. Garnish
with a chocolate curl and serve immediately.
NOTE: Ladyfingers for tiramisu, such as Savoiardi made by Bistefani in
Italy, are available at Italian specialty markets, and at some
supermarkets. Other ladyfingers or cubed pound cake can be substituted.
