Tiramis Pandoro Cake (recipe in description)

Tiramisu' Pandoro Cake. This Christmas I wanted to prepare something different and this dessert amazed everyone at the table. It's creamy and soft. It's light and fluffy. It's not too sweet. Has chocolate and coffee, a win-win combo. I will prepare it again for new year's eve!

For Kids:
- To avoid caffeine, switch to a decaf coffee mix.
- If they don't like the coffee flavor, you can switch the coffee with a mix of milk (1 cup), vanilla (1 Tbsp) and cocoa powder (1 Tbsp).

The main ingredient is the Pandoro, a traditional Christmas Italian cake that you buy at the store. If you cannot find Pandoro I would substitute it with a brioche bread or challah works too. The pandoro has a star shape that was very easy to cut and geometrically assemble in the cake mold. With any other shape you will have to work as in a puzzle and cut pieces in order to cover the sides and bottom of the cake mold.

INGREDIENTS:
1 Pandoro cake
16oz (450gr) mascarpone (one container)
8oz (230ml) heavy whipping cream (half pint)
a bit less than 1/4 cup (50gr.) sugar
1 handful chocolate chips
1 cup Italian coffee
unsweetened cocoa powder + powdered sugar for decoration on top

Let me know in the comments if you try it, it's simply delicious!
Ciao
