Hello friends of Foodies, I hope you are having a great day. The weekend I was at my friend Agustina's house, and she told me the magic words: I have everything to make "chocotorta". What is the "chocotorta"? It is a dessert that gets its name from the brand of cookies we use to make it, the "chocolinas" chocolate cookies. I am going to explain step by step how to make this dessert.
To make this recipe we will need one or two packages of chocolate cookies, dulce de leche and cream cheese in the same amount, a suitable source for the cold and some liquid such as milk chocolate or coffee.
Para hacer ésta receta necesitaremos uno o dos paquetes de galletitas de chocolate, dulce de leche y queso crema de igual cantidad, una fuente apta para el frio y algun liquido como chocolate con leche o café.
We are going to start with the filling, in a container we are going to mix or beat the cream cheese and the dulce de leche until we have a homogeneous mixture, my mother also adds whipped cream, that is to taste.
Vamos a comenzar con el relleno, en un recipiente vamos a mezclar o batir el queso crema y el dulce de leche hasta tener una mezcla homogenea, mi madre tambien le agrega crema batida, eso es a gusto.
We are going to start assembling the cake, we are going to dip the cookies in the liquid and we are going to place them on the entire base of the tray that we are going to use.
Vamos a comenzar a armar la torta, vamos a mojar las galletitas en el liquido y vamos a colocarlas en toda la base de la bandeja que vamos a utilizar.
Now we are going to grab a spatula and we are going to place a layer of the sweet filling. And we're just going to repeat the process as many times as possible. A layer of moist cookies, a layer of filling, a layer of cookies, etc.
Ahora vamos a agarrar una espatula y vamos a colocar una capa del relleno dulce. Y simplemente vamos a repetir el proceso la cantidad de veces posible. Una capa de galletitas humedas, una capa de relleno, una capa de galletitas, etc.
Simply to finish we are going to place a layer of cookies, in this case we had few "chocolina" cookies so we used another brand haha but it's the same, we just wet them and place them on top. Other people make a rain of chopped chocolate, that is a good and delicious option
Simplemente para finalizar vamos a colocar una capa de galletitas, en éste caso teniamos pocas galletitas "chocolinas" asi que utilizamos otra marca jaja pero es lo mismo, solo las mojamos y las colocamos en la parte superior. Otras personas hacen una lluvia de chocolate picado, esa es una buena y deliciosa opcion
The cake goes directly to the fridge, and listen to me, it should be in the fridge for at least two hours, the longer it spends refrigerated, the better it gets. Some people leave it overnight so it's ready for lunch.
La torta va directamente a la heladera, y escuchame bien, minimo dos horas debe estar en el frio, mientras mas tiempo pase refrigerada se pone mucho mejor. Algunas personas las dejan durante toda la noche para que esté lista para el almuerzo.
After that time you just have to cut a portion and sit down to enjoy this sweet delicacy, ask any Argentine what his favorite dessert is and he will surely tell you chocotorta. Because it is delicious and because it is easy to make! I hope you enjoyed my post!
Transcurrido ese tiempo simplemente debes cortar una porcion y sentarte a deleitarte con éste manjar dulce, preguntale a cualquier argentino cual es su postre favorito y seguramente te dirá chocotorta. Por que es delicioso y porque es facil de realizar! Espero hayas disfrutado mi post!
