White Chocolate and Raspberry Tiramisu Tart

This tart was based on a White Chocolate and Raspberry Tiramisu recipe I received from a friend (who possibly got it from a Nigella recipe).

I adapted the recipe so that I could make a tart from it, since the biscuits soaked in milk, that the original recipe called for, would not make for an ideal base
