2 Pound cakes (aprox 1 3/4 lb) 1 1/2 c Expresso coffee
1 1/2 c Heavy cream 1/4 c Rum
3 tb Sugar 8 oz Bittersweet chocolate,
12 oz Marscapone cheese -finely chopped
Cut the pound cake into strips, place on baking sheets and bake until
golden brown (approx 15 minutes), making sure to turn strips so they
brown on all sides.
Mix heavy cream with sugar; beat cream until soft peaks form. Beat
marscapone until soft, fold in whipped cream. Combine espresso and
rum.
Line bottom of a 9″x13″ baking pan with half of the browned cake
strips; brush them with the coffee mixture. Layer half the cream over
the strips, sprinkle half the chopped chocolate over that. Repeat
layering, ending with the chocolate. Chill for two hours. Enjoy!
