Chocolate Brew-Misu
A very decadent non coffee answer to the Italian dessert Pick Me Up, Tiramisu. SO good...delizioso
I confess I have more than one Thermomix with accompanying multiple bowls…in fact I have more than two…but I am not admitting to more than three….hahaha!
This recipe is easier with more than one bowl, but I have tried to write it as though I had only one bowl! So it was easier for me, than it will be if you only have one bowl, but persevere, or phone your local Thermomix consultant and order a second bowl and blade set. You will wonder what you did without it before.
As for how many servings this recipe makes, I am thinking around one on a good day and probably up to twelve if you can stop eating it yourself. The trouble with blogging BEFORE Christmas is that I make all this great stuff and we eat it before Christmas is actually here…but I am feeling the Brew Choc Love here and this may just have to be re-made…mascarpone added to the shopping list…again! Merry Chocolate Christmas all!
