No ratings yet
Chocotorta is a delicious Argentine dessert. It's a no-bake cake made with layers of cookies (usually chocolate-flavored) soaked in coffee or milk, and layered with a creamy mixture of cream cheese, dulce de leche (a caramel-like spread), and sometimes chocolate or cocoa powder. The layers are chilled resulting in a decadent and indulgent treat.

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, pour the coffee or milk. Dip each cookie quickly into the coffee/milk mixture, ensuring they are lightly soaked. Set them aside.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine the cream cheese, dulce de leche, and cocoa powder (if using). Mix well until smooth and creamy.
  3. Take individual cups or glasses and start by placing a single soaked cookie at the bottom of each cup.
  4. Add a spoonful of the cream cheese and dulce de leche mixture on top of the cookie, spreading it evenly.
  5. Repeat the layers, alternating between soaked cookies and the cream mixture until you've used up all the ingredients. Finish with a layer of the cream mixture on top.
  6. Optionally, you can garnish each cup with a dollop of whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or a sprinkle of cocoa powder.
  7. Cover the cups with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
  8. Once chilled, serve the Chocotorta cups and enjoy!
