Ingredients

  • Chocolate digestive biscuits - 100 grams
  • Cream cheese - 200 grams
  • Sweetened condensed milk - 100 grams
  • Unsweetened cocoa powder - 2 tablespoons
  • Vanilla extract - 1 teaspoon

Steps

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.
  2. Pour the milk into a shallow dish. Quickly dip each chocolate digestive biscuit into the milk for a second, ensuring they are soaked but not falling apart.
  3. Layer the soaked biscuits at the bottom of a serving dish. Spread a layer of the cream cheese mixture over the biscuits.
  4. Repeat the layering process, alternating between the biscuits and the cream cheese mixture until all ingredients are used, finishing with a cream cheese layer on top.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
  6. Before serving, garnish with dark chocolate shavings on top.
