  7. Arrange lady-finger biscuits in a single layer in a 20cm x 20cm tin.
  8. Add half of the cream cheese mixture on top of the biscuits.

Recipe Notes

If the lady-finger biscuits soak too long, they will fall apart. If they do not soak long enough, they remain crunchy and do not have the 'chocolate-y' flavour through.
For the topping, you can add whipped cream before the grated chocolate or any other topping combination you can think of eg strawberries, whipped cream, chocolate, etc.
