The list of ingredients of Tatyana’s dessert is impressive, but the result is worth the money and effort:

  6. We come back to the baby. To do this, the mass of parchment should be crushed in a blender.
  7. Cut the cake into two “pancakes”. Next, form a dessert in the following sequence: the first pancake - cream - crumbs - the second pancake - cream - powdered sugar (the remaining 50 g).
  8. The sides of the treat should also be coated with cream. After that, hold an almost ready dessert in the cold for 15 minutes.
  9. The icing remained. We combine half a glass of cream, half a pack of butter, 2 tablespoons of powder, crushed chocolate and brandy. We heat so that everything melts.
  10. Fill the cake with icing. Three remaining chocolate bar on a grater and sprinkle the cake with the resulting chips. We insist dessert in the cold for 1 hour.
