How to make Mojito cake
- Wisk the eggs with 150g of brown sugar until foamy. Mix the baking soda with the flour and the starch. Add it to the eggs and sugar. Bake in a cake form for 30-40min at 180°C.
- Clot 5dl of the cream until stiff. Add the ricotta. Mix the zest of 2-3 limes with the juice of 7 limes and the rest of the sugar. Set aside a few mint leaves and chop the rest of them finely. Add them to the lime juice and sugar. Add the mixture to the cream and ricotta.
- Add the gelatine to warm water until it dissolves according to the intructions on the package. Add the liquid to the filling. Put it in the fridge.
- Cut the biscuit in 3 layers.
- Put one layer of biscuit on the bottom of your pie form. When the filling starts to get solid, put a first layer of filling in your form. Wait until it has a solid texture. Put the next biscuit on top of it and soak it in rum. Pour the rest of the filling on top of it and let it solidify.
- A few hours before serving, take the pie out of the form. Put the last biscuit layer on top and soak it in the remaining rum.
- Clot the rest of the cream until stiff and plaster around the cake. Decorate with pieces of lime some mint leaves.
- Done!
