Total preparation time: 1 hour
Preparation time: 20 minutes
Chilling time: 40 minutes
Number of servings: 8-10
Necessary ingredients:
- 500 g plain biscuits (preferably butter biscuits for a richer flavor)
- 400 ml hot milk (whole milk provides better creaminess)
- ½ pack margarine (about 125 g, but you can also use butter for a more intense taste)
- 150 g sugar (adjustable according to your preferences)
- 2 tablespoons cocoa (for an extra touch of flavor and color)
- 1 pack vanilla cream (you can opt for chocolate cream or another flavor if you want to experiment)
Preparation technique:
1. Grinding the biscuits: Start by grinding the plain biscuits. You can use a food processor to achieve an even texture. Alternatively, you can put the biscuits in a bag and crush them with a rolling pin. Choose the option you find more fun!
2. Preparing the dough: In a large bowl, add the ground biscuits, cocoa, and sugar. Mix the dry ingredients well to homogenize them. Then, pour the hot milk over the biscuit mixture. Add the margarine cut into cubes. Mix vigorously until the margarine melts and everything becomes a homogeneous paste. This is when your dessert starts to come to life.
3. Preparing the cream: Follow the instructions on the vanilla cream package. Usually, it requires mixing with cold milk, but to improve the texture, I recommend preparing it with warm milk. Let the cream cool slightly before using it.
4. Assembling the roll: Take a sheet of aluminum foil and spread the biscuit dough evenly on it. Make sure the layer is about 1-2 cm thick, so it can be rolled easily. Then, spread the vanilla cream over the biscuit dough, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
5. Rolling: Using the aluminum foil, carefully start rolling the dough, forming a tight roll. Be careful at the ends not to let the cream spill out. Once you finish rolling, seal the aluminum foil well and place the roll in the refrigerator for about 40 minutes.
6. Serving: After it has cooled, take the roll out of the refrigerator, carefully unwrap the foil, and cut into thick slices. You can decorate it with a little cocoa or grated chocolate for a more elegant look.
Personal tip: If you want to add extra flavor, you can add some crushed nuts to the biscuit dough or use cocoa-flavored biscuits for an intensified taste.
