I always had a weakness for the chocolate and cookie cake that we always used to get in our birthdays celebrations when we were small. I remember that we were very full but we could always make some space for one last bite to taste once more this nice cake.<\/p>\n

The cake from today\u00b4s post is a version of that birthday cake that was so popular, but I used mocha cream instead of chocolate.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_20160605_130333\"<\/p>\n

Ingredients:<\/span><\/p>\n

400gr of biscuits (more or less, you can always need some more)<\/p>\n

250 gr of butter (room temperature)<\/p>\n

1 cup of fresh coffee (let cool)<\/p>\n

A splash of Brandy or Cognac (optional)<\/p>\n

200 ml of milk (you\u00b4ll use it for dipping the cookies)<\/p>\n

100 gr of sugar<\/p>\n

I used a 18 cm mold, small one, but you can choose the one that you most like, a square one, for example is also ok.<\/p>\n

How to:<\/span><\/p>\n

Soften the butter until you get a cream texture, add the sugar and keep on whisking until is well combined; when the coffee is already cold add it to the cream and start mixing with an electric beater until is well integrated (set aside)<\/p>\n

In a bowl, pour the milk and the splash of Brandy and start deeping the biscuits inside, but don\u00b4t let them break. Place the cookies in the mold, preaviously lined with baking paper.<\/p>\n

Place a layer of cookies and then extend on top of them a big spoon of mocha cream; keep on doing the same thing until you \u00a0reach the end of the mold; then extend the rest of the cream on top, so you can\u00b4t see the last layer of cookies. I decorated with cocoa powder and some fresh flowers.. I think is nicer to keep one night in the fridge and eat the next day (If you can wait) nice! ready to enjoy \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

One piece please \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
