My favourite dessert since I was a child, is mosaico. My grandma used to make this chocolate log goodness, especially on summer, in our cottage in a small Greek island, Tzia. When the mosaico was sitting on the freezer, these hot summer days, were waiting for a slice( I used to eat most of it secretly!).
It’s an easy to make dessert all year long! Prepare it for your family and friends! They we ll love it!!

Ingredients

  • 450g petit beurre biscuits(or digestive cookies), crushed

  • 180g icing sugar

  • 120g softened butter or vegetable margarine

  •  65g tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder 
    
  • 3 tablespoons liqueur of your choice (I prefer banana flavour)

    Method

  • break the biscuits into small pieces and put them in a large bowl and set aside

  • in the meantime, put a saucepan over medium heat and melt the butter with the sugar. add the cocoa powder, the milk and liqueur and blend with light circular movements until are completely combine

  • add the cocoa mixture into the bowl with the crushed biscuits and mix just to combine

  • put the mixture in the refrigerator and let cool down for about half an hour

  • lay out a sheet of parchment paper and spread the mixture along the edge of the sheet.

  • start to roll into a log. Halfway throw rolling, add a sheet of plastic wrap to help keep the roll the same size from beginning to end

  • continue to roll until the log is wrapped and tie the ends like a piece of candy!

  • cover in plastic wrap and place in the freezer for 3-4 hours
