- 2 cups shaved chocolate or chocolate chips

how to:
- pour coffee in shallow bowl, dip each lady finger and arrange it in a single layer on an 8x8 pan
- pour half of whipped cream on top and sprinkle with shaved chocolate or chips
- lay down another layer of coffee dipped lady fingers
- pour the remaining cup of whipped cream and top with remaining chocolate
- with a small sieve, dust cocoa powder all over the cake
- refrigerate until ready to serve
