Greek Tiramisu is inspired by the Italian classic Tiramisu. This version is a healthier dessert option made with Greek yogurt, which adds nutritional value to the dish. The ladyfingers are soaked in a coffee and Grand Marnier mixture before being layered with a creamy mixture of mascarpone, Greek yogurt, and confectioners' sugar. The dessert is then topped with grated dark chocolate for a bittersweet touch. It's a perfect dessert for any occasion and is sure to impress your guests.

Instructions

1.	In a shallow dish, combine the coffee and Grand Marnier.
2.	Quickly dip each ladyfinger in the coffee mixture, making sure to coat both sides. Then place it in a single layer in an 8-inch square dish, breaking some of the ladyfingers in half to fit properly.
3.	In a medium bowl, whisk together the mascarpone, confectioners' sugar, Greek yogurt, and vanilla extract until smooth.
4.	Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers in the dish.
5.	Repeat with another layer of dipped ladyfingers and the remaining mascarpone mixture.
6.	Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
7.	Just before serving, sprinkle the grated chocolate over the top of the tiramisu.
