They do use really hot peppers, but they don't go overboard.

Coffee is poison. My friends made me try the newly fashionable
Ka'u stuff from the Big Island, now being positioned as a
substitute for the super-hyped and super-scarce Kona, and three
tablespoons of it ruined my whole day.

Tiramisu
cat: Singaporean, Italian, dessert
yield: 1 batch

240 ml cold espresso coffee
150 ml kahlua
350 g mascarpone cheese
3 Tb caster sugar
360 ml cream
24 sponge fingers
cocoa powder

Mix the coffee and kahlua together in a shallow, wide
serving bowl and set aside.

Put the mascarpone cheese and sugar in a bowl and beat
1-2 min until the sugar dissolves. Whip the cream in
another bowl, then fold it into the mascarpone mixture.
Put a few spoonfuls of the mascarpone mixture in the
bottom of a serving dish such that it covers the base.

Dip and turn 1 sponge finger in the coffee mixture
until just soaked, then place it on top of the mascarpone
in the dish. Repeat with more sponge fingers until the
whole base is covered, with the sponge fingers placed
side by side. Smear another layer of mascarpone on top
of the first layer, and make a second layer with the
same steps.

Top with the remaining mascarpone and smooth the surface.
Cover the dish with cling film and refrigerate at least
4 hr.

Before serving, sprinkle the top with cocoa powder.
