Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 24 ounces (680 grams) cream cheese, softened at room temperature
- 2 cups (474 milliliters) heavy whipping cream, very cold
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) condensed milk
Espresso Component:
- ⅓ cup (80 milliliters) espresso shot
Garnish:
- ⅓ cup (30 grams) cocoa powder
Crepe Base:
- 30 crepes (double the recipe)
Instructions
- Craft delicate, thin crepes using a preferred recipe, aiming for approximately 30 uniform circles with an 8-inch diameter.
- Whisk softened cream cheese, condensed milk, and espresso in a spacious mixing bowl until achieving a silky, homogeneous texture.
- Gently fold in ultra-chilled heavy whipping cream, creating a light, airy consistency without overworking the mixture to prevent potential curdling.
- Segregate 2 cups of the cream preparation for exterior cake embellishment, transferring to a sealed container and chilling until deployment.
- Meticulously line a springform pan’s base with plastic wrap, ensuring complete coverage.
- Position the initial crepe at the pan’s bottom, spreading a generous layer of cream mixture across its surface.
- Delicately dust the cream-covered crepe with a fine veil of cocoa powder, creating subtle depth and complexity.
- Methodically continue layering crepes, cream, and cocoa powder, maintaining consistent thickness and evenness throughout the construction.
- Completely encase the assembled dessert, allowing it to rest in the refrigerator for a minimum of 24 hours, enabling flavor integration and structural stabilization.
- When serving, carefully invert the cake onto a decorative platter, gently removing springform sides.
- Enrobe the exterior with reserved cream mixture, creating a smooth, elegant finish.
- Liberally shower the cake’s summit with a final flourish of cocoa powder, enhancing visual appeal and complementing the dessert’s rich profile.
