PYRAMID CAKE WITH RICCOTA CHEESE

This is a very popular recipe in Turkey because it is easy to make and so very delicious.  No cooking is required.  Good for special occations.  The trick: it needs to be made ahead and stay in the freezer over night.  Banana is the most popular fruit for the middle but I also like strawberries or kiwi too.
1 egg
1/2 kg (500 gr) Riccota cheese
Social tea buscuits
1 cup icing sugar
1 package vanilla
2 medium size bananas
3 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted and then cooled)
1.5 cups cold milk
Chocolate syrup (I used Nestle's chocolate syrup for sundeas)
  • For the cream mix together eggs, cheese
  • Add icing sugar, butter and vanilla and continue to mix until smooth
  • Take a big piece of aliminum foil (size of the cake you want to make) and spread on a smooth surface
  • Line the aliminum foil with Saran wrap
  • Put 1/3 of the cream on the wrap
  • Dip biscuits in cold milk and remove from milk quickly and put them on the cream
  • Repeat layers with cream and cookies
  • Put bananas in the middle
  • With the help of the Saran wrap fold into a triangle
  • Cover with aliminum foil
  • Leave in the freezer over night
  • Take out of the freezer 1 hour before serving
  • Cover with chocolate syrup and decorate as you wish
  • Maybe at Christmas, write merry christmas on the side with red and green icing
