- 2 packets dream whip and enough milk required to make 2 cups of whipped cream
- 1/2 cup powdered cocoa
- cup strong black coffee
- 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
