Method

- Dip the biscuits into the mix quickly and place them into a beautiful glass bowl, be quick and only dip the biscuits on one side or they will disintegrate!

- Grate a good amount of chocolate and repaet the layering
- When you used up all the mascarpone mix, finish with a good layer of shaved chocolate.
- Place in the refrigerator for about 2 hours before serving.
- You can also finsh with a layer of savoyardy and couverture chocolate then add the shaved chocolate. This makes it a lot more chocolatey and you can decorate it if you so wish.
