Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Hot sugar. Hot sugar sticks to skin and burns far hotter than boiling water: don't touch or taste it. Keep a bowl of cold water close, and keep children away while it cooks.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. In a bowl with a mixer beat mascarpone and sugar until smooth. Add cream and chocolate and beat until mixture holds stiff peaks. In a small bowl stir together coffee and rum and brush onto wafers.
  2. Sandwich wafers together to form a tower using about two thirds cream mixture. On a plate arrange tower on its side and spread remaining cream over it. Chill cake, loosely covered, 30 minutes. With a sharp knife halve cake diagonally.
  3. Yield: 4 servings
