This is a collection of my favorite recipes from growing up, family, friends, and from my favorite magazines and websites. Some are tried and true, and some are still on my to-do list.
1/2 cup strong coffee or espresso, room temperature
2 tablespoons dark rum or brandy
1 loaf pound cake, preferably marbled, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices
1/4 cup shaved semisweet chocolate
Unsweetened cocoa powder, for dusting
Directions
In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat cream, cream cheese, and confectioners sugar until combined. In a small bowl, combine coffee and rum.
In a 2-quart baking dish, lay half the cake slices in a single layer, trimming to fit. Brush with half the coffee mixture. Top with half the cream mixture and half the chocolate. Repeat. Dust top with cocoa powder. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours before serving.
