WHITE CHOCOLATE COCONUT CAKE (NO BAKE)

INGREDIENTS

COOKIE DOUGH

• 175 g Maria biscuits
• 150 g unsalted butter

COCONUT MIXTURE

• 500 ml milk
• 55 g cornstarch
• 50 g granulated sugar
• 8 g vanilla sugar (1 packet)
• 200 g white chocolate
• 50 g grated coconut
• 250 g mascarpone

WHITE CHOCOLATE GANACHE

• 50 ml heavy cream
• 125 g white chocolate

EXTRA

• strawberries
• Raffaello
• edible rose petals

METHOD

1. Melt the unsalted butter in a saucepan over low heat.
2. Place the Maria biscuits in a food processor and grind them into fine crumbs. Add the melted butter and pulse until combined.
3. Spread the cookie dough evenly in a springform or baking pan, pressing it firmly against the sides. Place it in the refrigerator for a while.
4. Heat the milk, cornstarch, granulated sugar, and vanilla sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until it thickens. Remove the pan from the heat and add the finely chopped white chocolate. Mix well. Add the grated coconut and mix again. Finally, add the mascarpone and mix until smooth.
5. Spread the coconut mixture evenly over the cookie dough.
6. Heat the heavy cream until it's almost boiling. Add the finely chopped white chocolate (125 g) and let it sit for 1 minute. Stir until smooth.
7. Pour the white chocolate ganache over the coconut mixture, allowing it to spread evenly. Cover and refrigerate it. Let it set for 4-5 hours, preferably overnight to allow the flavors to meld.
8. Cut the coconut-chocolate tart into slices. If desired, garnish the tart with pieces of strawberry, Raffaello candies, and edible rose petals.

Tips:

• Make the cake a day in advance to allow the flavors to develop.
• Replace vanilla sugar with vanilla extract.
• Garnish the coconut-chocolate tart according to your preference.
• Optionally, substitute mascarpone with cream cheese.
• I used a 22 cm springform pan for this recipe.
• 30 minutes - 12 pieces
