INGREDIENTS
 

  • 17.6 ounces/500 grams Petit Beurre biscuits
  • 2 cups/480 grams heavy cream
  • cup/150 grams mascarpone cheese
  • cup sugar
  • 3 tablespoons vanilla instant pudding mix
  • 2 cups/480 grams whole milk
  • 2 short espresso shots/60 grams
  • 3.5 ounces/100 grams dark chocolate, finely chopped
  • 3.5 ounces/100 grams milk chocolate, finely chopped
  • cup/200 grams heavy cream

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Whip the heavy cream, mascarpone, sugar, and pudding mix on medium speed until smooth, light, and softly structured. The cream should hold its shape without becoming stiff.
  • Combine the milk and espresso in a shallow bowl. Dip the biscuits briefly, just long enough to absorb flavor without losing structure. Arrange them snugly in a 14-by-9-inch/35-by-23-centimeter rectangular pan, forming two even layers.
  • Spread half of the cream evenly over the biscuits. Add another layer of dipped biscuits, then finish with the remaining cream, smoothing the surface. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set.
  • Place both chocolates in a heatproof bowl. Bring the cream to a full simmer, then pour it over the chocolate. Let stand for 1 minute, then stir gently until fully melted and glossy.
  • Pour the ganache over the chilled cake, tilting the pan to coat evenly. Return to the refrigerator and chill until fully set, at least 3 hours, before slicing and serving.
