A recipe that will remind many of us from childhood that of the cake made by the grandmother with dry biscuits and custard, memories full of love and sweetness, as sweet as cake. In this version the cream is used as a filling or buffer in dividing the biscuits.
The dry biscuits must be taken and soaked in alternating layers in coffee and Marsala and this gives the cake a light alcoholic taste but it can also be done without if the fair is for children, but with coffee it softens the biscuits making them more absorbent, this recipe it is greedy and simple to make, it can be said that it is a faster alternative to make than the classic Tiramisu, to be served and shared as an original dessert or as a snack, Children love it and adults too.
Begin to arrange in a suitable dish a layer of dry biscuits soaked in coffee, as if they were many men lying down. Cover it with a few spoonfuls of custard and a sprinkle of cocoa. Repeat the same operation in the other layers, dipping the biscuits alternately in coffee or marsala, to be able to add as many as you like. At the end add other spoonfuls of cream in a coma and on top of the cream put the hazelnuts and cocoa pieces and then put the cake in the fridge for at least three hours, it depends on the temperature of the fridge. When the cream is hard enough, the cake is ready, let it defrost for five minutes and serve it with a sprinkling of cocoa.
