Ingredients:
- 200g of cream cheese
- 250ml of condensed milk
- 300ml of whipping cream
- For the coffee layer:
- 300ml of warm milk
- 1 tablespoon of cappuccino powder
- Crushed biscuits for base
- For the chocolate topping:
- 200g of chocolate
- 60ml of milk
Instructions:
- Begin by dissolving the cappuccino powder in warm milk. Mix in crushed biscuits until they are well soaked. Press this mixture into the bottom of a cake pan to form your base. Let it chill in the refrigerator to firm up.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese with condensed milk and mix until smooth. If you prefer a denser texture, whip the cream separately until it forms soft peaks, then fold it into the cream cheese and condensed milk mixture. Otherwise, you can mix the cream directly for a softer set.
- Pour the cream cheese mixture over the biscuit base and smooth out the top with a spatula. Chill in the refrigerator for it to set slightly.
- For the topping, melt the chocolate with milk in a saucepan over low heat, stirring until smooth. Allow it to cool slightly, then pour over the set cream cheese layer.
- Refrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to ensure it sets completely.
- Before serving, add any additional decorations such as chocolate curls or a sprinkle of powdered cappuccino.
