Gran Marnier Pudding

• 1/2 cup lady fingers (or amaretto cookies or vanilla wafers) crushed
• 2 Tblsp. espresso (or strong coffee)
• 1 1/4 pounds (20 ounces) cream cheese
• 2/3 cup sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 Tblsp. Gran Marnier
• 1 teasp. Rum

Crush/grind cookies. I like the food processor.

Add coffee and let stand until soaked.

Combine everything in a mixer bowl or food processor bowl.

Whip until mixture is blended scraping sides of the bowl to incorporate lumps. I like my food processor for this, but a capable mixer should do it as well. Hand mixing not advised.

Spoon into serving bowls or glasses.

Refrigerate at least 1 hour until it sets up.

Makes 6 to 8 servings.
