Ingredients

Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Crush the cookies in a blender. Mix 100 grams of cookies with 40 grams of melted butter (I found I needed a bit more butter, so I added about 20-30 grams more). Spread the mixture on the bottom of the mold, compact it, and place it in the freezer.
Step 2
Melt the remaining butter in a water bath with the bittersweet chocolate.
Step 3
Separate the egg yolks and beat them with sugar until white, then add to the chocolate mixture.
Step 4
Add the raisins, nuts (any of your choice, I used hazelnuts), liqueur, and the remaining cookies to the chocolate-egg mixture. Mix everything and pour it over the frozen base, then return it to the cold.
Step 5
Bring the cream to a boil and melt the milk chocolate in it. Use this glaze to cover the top of the cake and place it in the refrigerator for 2-4 hours.
