Ingredients
  

Biscuit Cake

  • ½ cup unsalted butter 1 stick
  • 3 sleeves tea biscuits 500g (I used an entire package of Ziyad brand)
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ cup semi sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon Espresso powder
  • 1 cup water

For the Ganache

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Crush the biscuits into large pieces and place them in a bowl.
  • Now in a pot, on medium heat, mix the sugar, cocoa powder, chocolate chips, espresso powder, water, and butter and mix until melted.
  • Then, let it come to a slight boil. Once bubbling, add the mixture on top of the crushed biscuits and mix them well together.
  • Next, spray and preferably line the bottom and sides of your 9-inch spring-form pan with parchment paper or plastic wrap.
  • Add the biscuit mixture and press down firmly to make it even.
  • Place it into the fridge to cool while you make the ganache.

For the Ganash

  • To a pot on medium-high heat, add the heavy cream.
  • Once you see the sides of the heavy cream bubble slightly, and steam comes out, remove it immediately.
  • Afterward, Pour on top of the chocolate chips do not stir, and let it sit for 3 minutes.
  • Then, once 3 minutes are up, stir with a metal spoon or fork until all the chocolate chips are melted and smooth.
  • Now pour on top of the cake evenly, and place into the fridge for 3 hours before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute the sugar for condensed milk and adjust the taste to your desired sweetness since condensed milk is sweet.
  • You can omit the semi-sweet chocolate or use dark chocolate or milk chocolate for a darker or sweeter taste.
  • You can make this in a loaf pan, or shape it into a log-on plastic wrap to cut into salami-like slices.
