Ingredients
  

Biscuit Mixture

  • 300 g plain tea biscuits about 1.5 packs
  • 250 ml milk
  • 25 g cocoa powder
  • 75 g butter
  • 100 g granulated sugar

Ganache

  • 200 ml heavy cream
  • 120 g dark chocolate chopped

Instructions
 

  • In a saucepan, heat the milk, sugar, and cocoa powder over medium heat, stirring until well combined.
  • Add the butter and stir until fully melted.
  • Break the biscuits into small pieces. Pour the chocolate mixture over the biscuits and mix well.
  • Transfer the mixture into a mold, pressing it down firmly. Cover the top with more biscuits.
  • In a separate saucepan, heat the cream until it just reaches a boil, then remove from heat.
  • Add the chopped dark chocolate and stir until smooth.
  • Let the ganache cool to room temperature before pouring it over the cake (hot ganache will make the biscuits soggy and ruin the texture).
  • Pour the ganache evenly over the cake.
  • Refrigerate for 3–4 hours, or overnight, until set.
  • Slice and serve cold.

Notes

  • Ganache must be at room temperature before pouring — never pour it hot.
  • Store in the fridge for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 1 month.
