filling preparation

• stir the cheese sugar cream vanilla coffee and orange juice together till they are well mixed
• melt the 200g milk chocolate and stir into the cheese mixture
• dampen the sides and base of the cleaned tin and line with grease proof paper
• cut the cake that u baked in half and place one layer in the prepared tin, add half the cheese mixture and level with a spatula.
• scatter chopped dark cooking chocolate on top of the cheese mixture layer and then add the remaining cheese mixture over the chunks.
• put the second layer of the cake, the uncut side facing upwards on top of the cheese mixture

decorate:

• melt the dark and white chocolate seperatly each with 2 tbsp of butter(this is where two seperate table spoons of butter come in guys)
• place alternate large spoonfuls of the chocolates on top of the cake and then tap the tin until they are both level. using a cocktail stick swirl the chocolate together until lightly marbled. leave the cake until set. then carefully remove it from the tin and peel away the icing paper!!!!

I love tiramisu...it seems that all the kids in my generation agree, but most aunties/uncles are not used to the coffee taste. My mom tried it once and she was like "ughhh..curva" . I guess desi uncles and aunties are still not sick of the damn trifle i see at every party!

Aisha Dubaiwali

i agree!! wherever i go trifle lol even i love it

stupid question, when you add the coffee, do you actually add the coffee powder? or make a little coffee and add the liquid?

Lusi

I think she is using instant coffee powder....

Aisha Dubaiwali
