We all have lots of memories of school day. This biscuit cake is one such memory. I don’t remember the exact year but yes I should have been in class 5th or 6th which is about 20-22 yrs back. In one of our catechism stay back class, a classmate who stayed near the school brought some cold cakes for all of us. I just remember her first name, Bhavna. She had made it herself and there was no baking required. She did tell us the recipe which I vaguely remember. So, on this base I started searching in goggle and got similar recipes and came out with my version, which is penned below. It still has not got the taste of Bhavna’s cake
Ingredients
Glucose biscuits – 6 packets or as require make 4 layers (I used Parle-
G)
Corn flour – 4 tbsp.
Milk – ½ ltr
Milk – ½ cup to mix the corn flour
Sugar – 1cup
Coco powder – 2tbsp
Instant coffee – 2tsp
Almond flakes – to decorate
Method
Prearrangement
1. Mix the corn flour to ½
cup milk and keep it aside.
2. Boil ½ ltr of milk.
3. When it is boiling, lower
the heat and add the coco powder and sugar and mix well.
4. To this add the corn
flour mixture prepared in the first step and keep stirring continuously till
the mixture thickens and boils to form custard.
5. Let the mixture cool
completely.
6. In a bowl take ½ cup luke
warm water and mix the instant coffee.
To assemble
7. Dip each biscuit in the
instant coffee mix and spread it in a square pudding dish.
8. When on layer of biscuit
is spread on the dish, spread the custard over it, so that the biscuit layer is
completely covered.
9. In the same process make
3 layers ending up with the custard.
10. Now keep the prepared dish to cool and set in a refrigerator for about
2 hrs.
11. Decorate it with almond flakes and serve.
