Servings: 1

2 Bars (à 100 g) cream mocha chocolate
150 g Amarettini (Italian almond pastry)
4 sheets white gelatine
1-2 TEASPOONS instant cappuccino powder
500 g Mascarpone (Italian double cream cheese)
125 g Whipped cream
500 g Low-fat curd
1 package Vanillin sugar
125 g Sugar
2-3 TABLESPOONS fresh squeezed lemon juice
1 TEASPOON Cocoa powder
baking paper
7-10 Tbsp Amarettini and Cape gooseberries

Directions

1
Roughly chop the chocolate and melt in a bain-marie. In the meantime, finely crumble the Amarettini. Line the bottom of a springform pan (24 cm Ø) with baking paper. Put the rim of a springform pan around it. Mix crumbled amarettinis and melted chocolate well.
2
Pour evenly onto the springform base with a large tablespoon and press down. Refrigerate the base for about 1 hour. For the cream, soak gelatine in water. Stir cappuccino powder and 1 tablespoon of warm water until smooth.
3
Mix mascarpone, cream, quark, vanilla sugar, sugar and lemon juice with the whisks of the hand mixer. Squeeze out the gelatine and dissolve in a small pot at low heat. Stir droplets into the mascarpone cream.
4
Spread the mascarpone cream loosely on the chocolate base and chill for another 4 hours. Remove from the mould with a sharp knife. Dust with cocoa to decorate. If desired, cover with a fork and spoon beforehand (remove very carefully afterwards).
5
Serve decorated with amarettini and Cape gooseberries as desired. Makes about 16 pieces.
