Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 400g milk chocolate
- 500 ml double cream
- 300g dark chocolate
- 2 packets of chocolate biscuits (approx. 28 pcs)
- 1 cup of coffee
- 1 tblsp brandy (optional)
Method:
- Add 1 spoonful of whipped cream to melted chocolate and fold it in gently.
- Fold in gradually the rest of the cream to the melted chocolate (in 2-3 goes).
- Finely chop 200g of dark chocolate and add to the chocolate-cream mixture.
- Add brandy to the coffee.
- Drop each cookie in to the coffee and lay on the bottom of a 20-24cm spring form pan. Make 2 layers on top of each other. (Leave a little space from the sides for the chocolate-cream mixture).
- Add half of the chocolate-cream mixture.
- Lay down another double layer of cookies and add the rest of the chocolate-cream mixture.
- Put in the fridge to set for couple of hours until overnight.
- Remove the sides of the pan, chop up the rest of the 100g of dark chocolate and cover the sides.
- Now easy, easy...NO, don't eat the whole thing at once!!!
Review: The cake is very chocolaty and soft and creamy! The chopped chocolate gives a nice crunch to the whole thing! Goes very well with a cup of tea!
Tip: DO NOT OVER WHISK THE CREAM!!! Otherwise it will become buttery and taste like butter!
