Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 cups of milk
- 1 small cup of flour
- 5 tablespoons of granulated sugar
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 packet of vanilla powder
- 1 packet of whipped cream powder
- 7 oz of cream cheese
Additionally:
- 1 1/2 - 2 packets of chocolate-flavored biscuits
- For soaking: Coffee-infused milk (using plain instant coffee with a bit of sugar added)
For the Ganache:
- 3/4 cup of cream
- 5 oz of milk chocolate
Instructions:
- Combine all ingredients except for the whipped cream powder and cream cheese in a bowl. Strain into a pot.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring continuously until it thickens and begins to boil. Continue cooking for 1-2 minutes more, then remove from heat.
- Cover with cling film directly on the surface and let it cool.
- Once cooled, add the whipped cream powder and beat with a mixer on high speed for 2-3 minutes.
- Mix in the cream cheese briefly (do not use the liquid from the cream cheese).
- Prepare the coffee-infused milk by mixing milk, instant coffee, and sugar.
- Dip the biscuits in the milk mixture slightly and lay them out in a mold or small rectangular dish. Use a 9-inch mold or a small glass dish for a standard size; double the recipe for a large rectangular dish.
- After laying out the biscuits, spread a layer of the cream mixture and smooth it out. Repeat with another layer of biscuits and finish with the cream mixture.
- For the ganache, heat the cream and then add the chocolate, stirring until melted. Let it cool slightly before spreading over the cake.
- Optionally, decorate with white chocolate. Let the cake rest in the fridge overnight for the best flavor.
Enjoy!
