Ingredients

  • 500 ml thickened cream
  • 2 tbs caster sugar
  • 2 tbs vanilla essence
  • 250 g pack choc ripple biscuits
  • 1 block dark chocolate
  • Handful fresh cherries for garnish
  • In a bowl whisk the thickened cream, caster sugar, and vanilla essence until stiff peaks form.

Instructions

  • Take a spoonful of whipped cream and spread it onto a biscuit, then sandwich another biscuit on top. Repeat the process, continuing to layer the biscuits with cream, forming a log.
  • Once the log is assembled, use a spatula to coat the entire surface with the remaining whipped cream, smoothing it over like icing. Keep the texture a little rough for a homemade touch.
  • Place the cake in the fridge for at least an hour to allow the cream to bind everything together and soften the biscuits.
  • Grate half the chocolate into a powder (you could use cocoa if you prefer) and melt the other half in a double boiler.
  • Once chilled, generously sprinkle the grated dark chocolate over the top, and drizzle the melted chocolate over for extra decadence.
  • Finish by garnishing with a handful of fresh cherries. Serve and enjoy!
