Coffee

• 750ml espresso coffee
• 250ml vanilla soy milk
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Cream

• 1 x 340g container Tofutti Vegan Sour Cream
• 2 x 227g containers of Tofutti Vegan Cream Cheese

METHOD

For the Lady Fingers

1. Preheat your oven to 180C / 355F and grease a loaf tin.
2. Mix the soy and vinegar in a bowl and set aside.
3. Sift the flour, baking powder and sugar into a different bowl.
4. Mix the oil, vanilla extract and vanilla seeds in a measuring jug and slowly add the soy milk & vinegar mixture.
5. Then, slowly add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and combine well until there are no lumps.
6. Bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean. Once the loaf is cooled, slice into fingers and then lay on a baking sheet. Return to the oven (not turned on) for another 8-10 minutes to dry out slightly.

For the Coffee

1. Mix the coffee, vanilla and soy milk to taste (taste as if you were drinking the coffee straight).
2. Dip 1/3 of the cake fingers in the coffee and leave to soak at the bottom of the bowl.

For the Cream

1. In a food processor, blend the Toffuti products, soy whip and vanilla extract until combined. Little by little, blend the icing sugar into this mixture until combined. Leave this mixture in the fridge for an hour to set and thicken.
2. Meanwhile, using a peeler – peel some chilled dark chocolate into curls and sift the cocoa for assembly.
3. Take the cream mixture out of the fridge and spread 1/3 of the mixture onto the cake fingers, then top with chocolate curls and sifted cocoa. Repeat this process until you run out of ingredients, ensuring that the cream, curls and cocoa are at the top.
