Here is a recipe for lowfat tiramisu that I found in the October, 1993
issue of _Cooking Light_. I have not yet tried it (I plan to), but I have
generally had good results with recipes from this magazine.

Place first 6 ingredients in food processor with knife blade and process
until smooth; set aside.

Combine hot water and espresso granules in a small bowl. Split ladyfingers
in half lengthwise. Quickly dip 20 of the halves, cut side down, in
espresso and place, dipped side down, in the bottom of a 9inch square
baking dish. Dip 20 more ladyfinger halves, cut side down, into espresso,
and arrange dipped side down, on top of the first layer. Spread 2 C of the
cheese mix ture evenly over the ladyfingers. Repeat procedure with remain
ing ladyfinger halves, espresso, and cheese mixture.

Place toothpicks in each corner and 1 in the center of tiramisu to prevent
plastic wrap from sticking to cheese mixture. Cover with plastic wrap and
refrigerate for 3 to 8 hours. Sprinkle with cocoa before serving.

This recipe makes 9 servings with 7.5 g fat each. I hate to think how many
grams of fat are in the real stuff!
