For 10 portions

Ingredients

500 g butter cookies
500 ml whipping cream
3 eggs
11 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons instant coffee (NESCAFÉ or cappuccino)
a little milk for dipping the cookies
optional – a few drops of rum flavoring
grated chocolate for sprinkling

Preparation procedure

Preparing the whipped cream: Whip the whipping cream with half of the sugar to a stiff consistency. Set aside in the fridge.
Preparing the coffee base: Beat the eggs with the remaining sugar until foamy. Place the mixture over a water bath and whisk until it begins to thicken. Add the instant coffee and mix well so the coffee completely dissolves. Then let cool.
Combining the cream: Gradually fold the whipped cream into the cooled coffee mixture. The resulting cream should be smooth, delicate and lightly coffee-flavored.
Assembling the cake: Quickly dip the cookies into cold milk (for a stronger flavor you can add a bit of rum flavoring). Place them on the bottom of a pan. Add a layer of cream about 1 cm thick. Repeat the process 3–4 times, with the last layer being creamy.
Finishing: Level the surface of the cake and sprinkle with grated chocolate. Let rest in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours, ideally overnight, so the cookies soften and the dessert sets.
