Steps

Prepare Biscuits

Crush the biscuits into coarse crumbs. You can do this in a bag with a rolling pin or in a food processor. If desired, lightly drizzle some of the biscuit crumbs with milk to soften them.

Make Cream

In a large bowl, whisk the mascarpone with the powdered sugar and cocoa powder until smooth and creamy. In a separate bowl, whip the cold heavy cream with the vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until well combined.

Layer and Chill

Divide a portion of biscuit crumbs among the bottoms of 4 glasses. Spoon a layer of chocolate cream over the crumbs, then repeat the layering until the cream and biscuits are used up. Finish with a layer of cream on top. Grate dark chocolate over the top for garnish. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.

Extra Tips

► Use high-quality cocoa powder for a deeper chocolate flavor.

► You can vary the biscuits: buttery shortbread or even Oreos are perfect.

► Garnish with fresh fruits like raspberries or strawberries for an even fresher taste experience.
