Chocolate Lasagne


I came up with this recipe after looking at similar ones. I wanted to produce one that was easy but also unique. I tested it out of my family on New Years Day and it went down a treat. I would class this as a Skill 1 recipe.




1 Packet of Domino cookies around 350g(or for those outside of Finland Oreo's or similar, you can essentially use any kind of biscuits)
6 tbsp melted butter
200g Soft Cheese
400 ml Double Cream
2 sheets of gelatine (or agar-agar if you are a veggie)
1 tsp vanilla essence
1tbsp sugar
handful or two of mixed chocolate chips (or about 100g of bashed chocolate in chips are not available)

First put your biscuits and butter into a food processor and crush finely. If you have no food processor, stick them in a food bag and then bash the living daylights out of them. Then put half of them on the bottom of a standard size (9*13) baking dish, press down with a spoon until all evenly distributed, put aside. Soak your sheets in some water and leave to one size.

In a bowl whip your cream to soft peak, then in another bowl whip together a tablespoon of sugar, the soft cheese and the vanilla. Add the cheese mix to the soft cheese and fold into the cream. Then melt your gelatine in a pan then sieve it into the cream mixture, combine.

Pour half the mixture on top of your biscuit in the dish. Sprinkle half of your chocolate chips in. Then layer the rest of the biscuit mix on top of the cream with a spoon, taking care when spreading. Pour and spread the rest of the cream and chips. Put in fridge for at least 2 hours before serving. You can also sprinkle some coco powder on top if you choose.


Serve straight from the fridge and watch everyone wow in amazement.
