"Mravinjak"

Potrebno:
500 gr petit (ili sl.) keksa
1/2 l Mlijeka
1-2 kasicice ruma
250 gr putera ili margarina
3 zumanjka
6 kasika secera u prahu
130 gr cokolade, 65% kakao, istopljene
130 gr ljesnika, pecenih i mljevenih
po zelji grozdjice, zele bombone…
Za ukrasiti:
3 bjelanjka
9 kasika secera, uspinovan sa
3 kasike vode
malo ribane cokolade
Priprema:
Izlomite keks na cetvrtine, te ga polijte (kasika po kasika) sa 1/2 l mlijeka u koje ste ubacili rum. Promijesajte i ostavite sa strane.
U drugu posudu izmijesajte pjenasto maslac sa secerom, pa dodajte zumanjke.
Ubacite cokoladu i ljesnjake i promijesajte (ovdje takodje ubaciti grozdjice… ja ih nisam dodavala, jer nisu bile pozeljne).
Sastojke iz obje posude izmijesati, pa prevrnuti na tanjir za sluzenje (mozete oblikovati bilo koju formu; pretpostavljam da se zove ‘Mravinjak’ zbog oblika kupole). Staviti u frizider.
Bjelanca umutiti u cvrst snijeg, pa im u mlazu dodati vrucu uspinovanu masu od vode i secera (Ja jos malo ‘dokuham’ na pari). Mutiti jos par minuta, a zatim ukrasiti tortu, preko koje konacno naribate cokoladu.
Prije sluzenja jos rashladiti (2 sata) u frizideru.
