Chocotorta
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.
Ingredients
- 12 chocolate-flavored cookies (such as Oreo or chocolate graham crackers)
- 1/2 cup strong coffee or milk
- 200 g cream cheese
- 200 g dulce de leche (caramel spread)
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder (optional, for extra chocolate flavor)
- Whipped cream chocolate shavings, or cocoa powder for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- 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.
- In a separate bowl, combine the cream cheese, dulce de leche, and cocoa powder (if using). Mix well until smooth and creamy.
- Take individual cups or glasses and start by placing a single soaked cookie at the bottom of each cup.
- Add a spoonful of the cream cheese and dulce de leche mixture on top of the cookie, spreading it evenly.
- 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.
- Optionally, you can garnish each cup with a dollop of whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or a sprinkle of cocoa powder.
- 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.
- Once chilled, serve the Chocotorta cups and enjoy!
