Preparation method
- In a bowl, beat the butter with the refined sugar until you obtain a light and fluffy cream
- Add the condensed milk and continue beating until well incorporated
- Incorporate the fresh cream, vanilla essence, and cassis liqueur (if using), mixing gently with a whisk or spatula until you obtain a homogeneous cream
- Prepare a removable-rimmed pan (approximately 18 cm in diameter and 4 cm in height), lining the sides with acetate ribbon or greasing with a little butter
- Line the bottom of the pan with a layer of cornstarch biscuits, breaking them if necessary to fill the gaps
- Pour half of the prepared cream over the layer of biscuits
- Make another layer with the remaining cornstarch biscuits
- Cover with the remaining cream
- Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours, or until firm
- Carefully remove the pie from the pan
- In a small saucepan, heat the 600 ml of cream without whey over low heat, without letting it boil
- Remove the pan from the heat and add the chopped semi-sweet chocolate and the 10 g of butter
- Stir constantly until the chocolate and butter are completely melted, forming a smooth ganache
- Spread the reserved chocolate ganache over the top of the pie, letting it drip down the sides
- Decorate the sides of the pie with the champagne or "casadinho" type biscuits, pressing lightly so they stick to the ganache
