Pasteurized egg yolks

I needed some pasteurized eggs for a safe Tiramisu I was preparing for Thanskgiving and this type of product is difficult to find in this area. I could not even find the lady fingers so I will use vanilla wafers as a substitute.

This recipe is from the American Egg Board. The link to this and other way to prepare eggs save can be found in the eggcyclopedia link below.
