DORA /STACK CAKE

DORA CAKE / STACK CAKE / LAYERED CAKE🥞
Made these delicious 😋 DORA CAKES to bring in the New year.
Happy New year 2020💐

     These extremely  easy to make and delicious cakes are a kind of Japanese desserts . These are the favorites of Doraemon , the super cat robot .
          Originally Dora Cake consists of two pancakes sandwiched with  sweetened red bean paste  . But now  jam , nutella , chocolate etc ( homemade or store bought )  are used . I have tweaked the recipe by stacking up 6 pancakes and  sandwiching   and topping them  with ready-made  chocolate sauce and nuts  . So it looked like a stacked or layered cake

Tiramisu

TIRAMISU This is a sofisticated coffee flavoured layered Italian dessert . Tiramisu means ' cheer me up ' . Indeed it lives up to its name . It's comfort in every bite . A bite into it  , will pepp you up .        The kick of the coffee from the biscuits dipped in it  and the luscious  creamy texture of the cheese are incorporated beautifully together in harmony.           Tiramisu can be served in individual bowls, glasses or set in a shallow dish . Traditional Tiramisu is made savoiardi  sponge biscuits , eggs, sugar, mascarpone cheese  flavoured with cocoa and  alcohol .             It's important that the biscuits don't become too soggy or they will crumble and fall apart . You need to be able to taste  the coffee , but not make the dessert bitter at the same time.            As I feel that there is no end to experimentations and playing a...
