Semi-Frio

This recipe isn't for the faint hearted if your not big on sweet stuff as its super super sweet, so I would not normally do this unless its for a dinner party. You can omit the gelatine however it won't stay as firm. Unfortunately the picture didn't turn out so well because by the time I took the photo everyone pretty much had demolished the entire dessert.

Ingredient

Food ration :

6 servings

1 can

condensed milk

1 carton

double cream (around 400 ml)

1 pack

of your favourite jelly, I used strawberry

gelatin leaves

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

In advance prepare your jelly, following the packet instructions.

* Step 2

I left out the measurements for the biscuits because its left for you to decide how much you want in the desert and for the topping. I would suggest as many as needed to cover your base layered in 2-4 biscuits on top of each other.

* Step 3

For the time being while the jelly is setting you only need to prepare the topping. I used about 100g to 150g of biscuits. In a food processor put the biscuits in and process until it's fine crumbs, close to a powder. Alternatively you can crush your biscuits and set aside for later.

* Step 4

When your almost ready to assemble everything together, make your coffee, if you don't make enough it's not a problem you can make more as needed it's only to soak the biscuits but do let it cool down first. Let it cool down to luke warm temperature.

* Step 5

Place coffe in a shallow bowl.

* Step 6

Dissolve the gelatin leaves in some cold water and set aside.

* Step 7

Gather your dish for the dessert next to your and the whole biscuits. 1 by 1 soak the biscuits in the coffee for no more than a few seconds and cover the bottom of your dish. Continue to layer the biscuits until there is between 2-4 on top of each other. You can choose how many layers of biscuits you like.

* Step 8

When done set in fridge until needed.

* Step 9

Next whip the double cream. You want to beat it into a stiff peak.

* Step 10

Add the can of condensed milk and stir together well until everything is combined.

* Step 11

Dice the jelly into small pieces. Set aside.

* Step 12

Drain the gelatin to almost empty. Then place in the microwave on 30 seconds mix until it's well combined.

* Step 13

Mix the gelatin with the creamy mixture well.

* Step 14

Add half of the mixture to your tray and smooth down the cream using a spatula. If you want to layer it with more coffee soaked biscuits in the middle you can. I instead chose to add diced jelly in the middle then added the remaining half of the cream and once again smooth it down.
