RECIPE DIFFICULTY-LITTLE CARE NEEDED

How to make chocolate Marie biscuit pudding

Please make sure to read the recipe instructions carefully to avoid mistakes.
Ingredients

The ingredients mentioned below use standard measuring cups and spoons.

3 and 1/2 cups of icing sugar(I needed only 3 cups but to those of you who like with a thicker layer of chocolate icing you can use an extra 1/2 cup)

4 tablespoons of cocoa powder

1 teaspoon of instant coffee or regular coffee granules

1 cup of butter(1/4 cup extra butter if using extra 1/2 cup sugar)

Pinch of salt

1 teaspoon of vanilla

1 and 1/2 cups of milk

80-90 Marie biscuits(buy a large 330g pack or 5-6 smaller 75g pack)

1/ cup of coarsely crushed cashews(optional)

Method

Have all your ingredients ready to make the biscuit pudding.

Making the chocolate icing for the biscuit pudding.

Sift the icing sugar(3 cups. 1/2 a cup more if making extra icing)onto a large bowl.

Followed by sifting cocoa powder(4 tbs) and instant coffee(1 tsp-substitute with regular coffee).

Tap on the mesh to make the cocoa sift quicker.

Soften the butter(1 cup)with a spoon first.

And then gradually add the sifted icing sugar with cocoa powder, followed by a pinch of salt and vanilla(1 tsp). combine well.

Continue to mix in the butter, icing sugar, cocoa powder, and coffee.

Combine until you have a smooth and creamy chocolate butter icing. 5 minutes.

Once you have the chocolate icing done, it should be smooth, creamy.

Refrigerate the chocolate butter icing until you need it to layer the biscuit pudding.

How to assemble the marie biscuit pudding.

Have your medium-sized pyrex dish ready to make the biscuit pudding. 

Soak the biscuit one at a time in milk. 3-5 seconds of dunking should do.

And lay the biscuit slightly overlapping each other.

Add the 3-4 tablespoons of chocolate icing over the biscuit layer and spread evenly. be generous with this layer of icing.

Once you’ve spread the icing, soak a few more Marie biscuits and add another layer.

This would be your second layer of biscuits.

Add another thinner layer of icing than the first one, on top of the second biscuit layer. 

I would like to mention that how much chocolate icing you add between the layer is your preference.

I like mine to have the bottom layer and the top layer thicker while the middle layers are thin.

This way, when I cut into the pudding, I taste the biscuits more than the icing which can be overwhelming and too sweet.

Soak biscuits and lay the 3rd layer. this time not overlapping each other.

Followed by adding all the remaining Marie biscuits after soaking them in milk.

Continue adding the biscuit and chocolate icing layer. you’ll probably have 4 layers alternative of biscuit and icing.

Then spread the last layer of chocolate icing. this layer should be thick.

Once you are done refrigerate the chocolate biscuit pudding to set(5-6 hours).

Once chilled, you can cut and serve them as individual pieces. 

For best results, keep the Marie biscuit pudding refrigerated just until 15 minutes before serving time.
