An easy to make icebox cake with visuals of Safari and a twist in flavour. Removign the sugar might get you confused if this one is perfect dessert for sweettoothed like you. But try it with richberry, sweet without sugar.
Ingredients:
1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 (9 ounce) package dark chocolate wafer cookies
¼ cup grated dark chocolate
Directions:
Step 1 Beat cream in a large glass or metal mixing bowl with an electric mixer. Gradually add confectioners' sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to beat until the cream holds stiff peaks. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the whipped cream should form a sharp peak that holds its shape.
Step 2 Spread a generous teaspoon of whipped cream on each cookie. Press cookies together to make 3-inch stacks.
Step 3 Spread a 1-inch wide line of whipped cream down center of a serving platter. Assemble cookie stacks into a log on platter following the line of whipped cream.
Step 4 Frost cookie log with remaining whipped cream and sprinkle with grated chocolate.
Step 5 Cover tightly and refrigerate overnight.
Step 6 To serve, slice diagonally to create striped pieces.
Consume Miracle Berry:
Just before digging in, chew 1 or more freeze-dried miracle berry (this can also be done during the preparation of ingredients). Ensure to remove pits to avoid a bitter taste.
Fact:
The active ingredient miraculin from miracle berry will turn sour foods such as lemon, lime, orange, grapefruit, non-fat yoghurt and other citrus food to taste sweet without adding sugar. We recommend two halves or 2 servings for maximum effectiveness. Make sure to follow instructions from the back of the packaging.
Note: Sometimes you may need to add at least 5-7% of the total quantity of sugar required, this is due to the chemistry of the food, however, you may skip this as you wish. The goal is to totally reduce sugar and yet experience the same taste.
