Coffee Crisp Recipes

COFFEE CRISP

Steps:

• Shake well and pour into old-fashioned glass.
• Do not use ice.

COFFEE CRISP CAKE

Steps:

• Use a serrated knife to cut edges off loaf cake to make a rectangular brick. Carefully cut cake sideways into three 1/2-in slices. Freeze slices in one layer on a baking sheet until ready to use.
• To make icing, stir whipping cream with instant coffee and cocoa powder in a small bowl. Microwave for 15 seconds until cream is hot. Stir to dissolve coffee. In a large bowl, beat unsalted butter with an electric mixer until fluffy. Gradually beat in icing sugar, adding cream when it gets too thick. Set icing aside.
• lace one slice of cake on a platter. Spread a thin layer of icing over cake. Top with wafer cookies. Spread with another thin layer of icing. Repeat with 2 more layers of cake, icing and wafers. Spread remaining icing over top and sides of cake. (It's fine if it looks a bit messy as it will get covered in chocolate glaze.) Refrigerate cake for 30 minutes.
• To make glaze, microwave whipping cream and butter for 15 to 30 sec until cream is hot. Pour over chopped milk chocolate in a bowl. Stir until chocolate is melted. Let the chocolate cool slightly. It will thicken up a bit.
• Pour glaze on top of cake. Use a metal spatula to spread the glaze over top and sides of cake. Refrigerate for 1 hour or overnight.
• Slice and enjoy!
