			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Portuguese have a version of Tiramisu called Bolo de Bolacha. It&#8217;s simple: layers of coffee-dipped biscuit  and thickened cream with grated chocolate on top. Typical Portuguese &#8211; they do away with the marscapone and the savioardi biscuits in the italian tiramisu recipe and replace them with inexpensive and more readily available ingedients. So unpretentious. So cool. I love this recipe because it&#8217;s a cake you don’t bake (and I don&#8217;t have a normal oven) and it&#8217;s pathetically easy and quick to make. I know it doesn&#8217;t sound that exciting; but believe me, it adds up to much more than the sum of its parts.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s my version. I make it as a semi-frio/icecream. This is so yummy that I can easily eat a whole litre in one sitting. As a result I will not be wearing a bikini this year.</p>
<p><strong>Ingredients;</strong></p>
<p>A packet of Maria Biscuits (these are the most basic sweet biscuits there are.  Here they cost 35c per pack. In Australia the equivalent would be Arnott&#8217; s Milk Arrowroot. Except Marias are round and not as thick. )<br />
A litre of Vanilla Ice Cream<br />
Caramel sauce: equal quantities butter and brown sugar, cooked slowly until sugar is completely dissolved and colour altered slightly. Add shot of moscatel or brandy or whatever if it&#8217;s for grown-ups.<br />
A cupful of espresso coffee.</p>
<p>Dip the biscuits in the coffee briefly and make a layer of them in an ice cream or plastic container (I line the container with plastic to make serving easier) then plop on a layer of ice cream, then a drizzle of caramel sauce and repeat until you&#8217;ve filled the container. Try to freeze it for 24 hours before eating, if you can wait that long. You have to slice it to get the full effect.</p>
