Method
You will need a 20cm (8 inch) round, loose based cake tin.
Dissolve gelatine in a little hot water. Mix sugar and coffee with 2 tablespoons boiling water, then mix into the clear gelatine with 2 tablespoons of liqueur. Dip sponge fingers into remaining liqueur then use them to closely line the base and sides of the tin, with the odd Flake evenly spaced round the edge between the fingers. Melt the chocolate carefully. Whisk cheese and coffee mixture together, then whisk in the cream and cooled chocolate, continuing to whisk until mixture thickens; spoon into the tin. Refrigerate overnight until set. Sprinkle generously with cocoa then ease out of the tin and serve on an attractive plate with a decoration in the centre. Tie a ribbon round the dessert if you wish. Serve in slices.
