Ingredients:
Important notes to consider:
- 4 heaping tablespoons, Nescafe
- 2 cups hot water
- 1 pint heavy whipping cream, cold
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- tea biscuits or similar
- Garnish – Cocoa powder (or Nescafe)
- Combine 2 cups of hot water with 4 tablespoons Nescafe in a shallow dish. If you prefer a stronger coffee taste, increase the amount of Nescafe. Be careful about adding too much, lest it become bitter.
- Pour cold heavy whipping cream into a large bowl. Beat on medium speed for 2-3 minutes, until soft peaks form. Do not over beat.
- Gently fold in one can of sweetened condensed milk. Be sure to scrape down sides of bowl to fully incorporate all ingredients. Set aside.
- Dip tea biscuits into coffee mixture for 3 – 4 seconds. Long enough to soak without falling apart. Cover bottom of 9×13 dishwith full layer of soaked biscuits. Repeat for a second layer.
- Spread half of the sweetened whip cream mixture evenly over the first layer of biscuits.
- Repeat with another layer of soaked biscuits. Spread remaining whipped cream evenly on top. Dust with cocoa powder.
- Cover and refrigerate 4 hours to overnight.
Important notes to consider:
- If using a hand mixer, you will need to beat the whipping cream for 5-6 minutes.
- If the coffee mixture is cold, the biscuits will soak up less liquid. Hold the biscuits in the liquid for 5-6 seconds.
