Biscuit Mocha Slice

Recipe No: 197

This is a frozen dessert that will stay good in the freezer for days… It is totally a make ahead dessert which is very good for small family gatherings or after dinner with some friends specially if there are kids or simply for your own family to enjoy…

Ingredients                                      Serves 8

• Marie Biscuit…………………..1 packet (any arrowroot variety will do)
• Instant Coffee Powder……..2 Tablespoons (I used Bru)
• Boiling Water………………….1 Cup
• Heavy cream…………………..2 Cups
• Chocolate Powder……………1 ½ Tablespoons
• Powdered Sugar………………1 Cup
• Vanilla Essence……………....1/2 Teaspoon

Method of Preparation

1. Dissolve Instant Coffee Powder in boiling Water and let it cool to lukewarm.
2. Whip Heavy Cream till foamy and add Chocolate Powder, Powdered Sugar and Vanilla Essence and continue whipping till thick. (Don’t whip too much as we don’t want a standing consistency)
3. Prepare a loaf pan by lining the bottom with an Aluminum foil. Let the foil extend through the sides which will help us while taking the dessert out.
4. Add a small layer of the Cream mixture in the bottom (I accidentally missed that step, but that will make this dessert look pretty).

5. Dip the biscuits one at a time in warm Coffee for 5 seconds and arrange  as a layer on top of the Cream mixture.
6. Once a layer of Biscuit is placed, top it with another layer of Cream.
7. Continue layering Cream and Biscuit alternately till all the Biscuits are used and make sure you end up with Cream on top.
8. Cover this and refrigerate for 10- 12 hours.
9. While serving, put the dessert upside down on a plate. If there is no foil on the sides do run a knife along that side and use the foil to get it out of the pan.
10. Peel the foil and slice the frozen dessert into desired thickness and serve cold.

Notes:

• Don’t use Glucose Biscuits instead of Arrowroot as it will make this dish overly sweet.
• In order to slice this frozen Dessert easily, let it stand at room temperature for 2-4 minutes before slicing.
• Do freeze the leftovers as soon as possible or it will melt.

Make it, enjoy the deliciousness and
serve it to your family with love...
