=============================Recipe 2=============================

Ingredients:

* Biscuits - 5-7 small pkts (account for broken ones)
* Unsalted Butter - 2 tsp
* Chocolate Powder - 2 tbsp
* Unsweetened Cocoa Powder - 1 tsp
* Instant Coffee Powder - 1.5 tsp (optional)
* Cornstarch - 2 tbsp
* Sugar - 2 tbsp
* Milk - 2+1 cups
* Chopped Walnuts - 1/4 cup

Directions:

* Mix the Cornstarch with 1/2 cup of milk (from the 2 cups).
* In a heavy-bottomed pan on low flame, add in the balance of the 2 cups of Milk.
* Add in the Chocolate Powder, Cocoa Powder, Sugar and Butter.
* Bring the Milk to a boil.
* Add in Instant Coffee Powder and allow it to mix in well.
* Add in the diluted Cornstarch.
* Stir constantly, once the mixture starts thickening, take it off the flame.
* Keep stirring to make sure it is a smooth with no major lumps. Use a whisk or a hand blender if needed.
* Set aside and allow it to cool down to room temperature.
* Now for the assembly of the cake, open the packets of biscuits and take out the broken ones.
* Take the biscuit and give it a quick dip in the Milk (1 cup) and start layering on the platter.
* Lay out the 1st layer of biscuit and then spread some syrup/sauce over it.
* Alternate with a layer of Biscuits and Sauce…till you reach a desired height.
* Cover the top most layer with the balance of the Syrup and some on the sides.
* Sprinkle with chopped Walnuts and chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
* Slice like you would for a cake and serve.
* Serves 8.

Tips:

* Buy a few extra biscuit packets…they taste yummy and you will end up eating a lot more than you think.
* We have tried a lot of different kinds of biscuits…Parle G workout best. They are available at any Indian Grocery store.
* The moment you see the sauce thicken, take it off the flame and keep stirring.
* Have patience and let the syrup get to room temperature…otherwise the biscuits will end up being soggy.
* If you like thicker syrup, add another 1/2 tbsp of Cornstarch.
* The layering needs some careful handiwork…do it slowly and don’t be in a rush.
* You can sprinkle the top with coconut powder, sprinkles, assorted dry fruits and/or chocolate syrup.
