Diplomatico: Chocolate and coffee no bake cake.

This cake is very easy to make ^^, actually it's very suitable for me because now I'm in the lazy mode (again).

Using Sponge finger biscuits for the base of the cake, make life easier, hehe, but if you want you can bake the biscuits by yourself, and remember that home made biscuits will need less coffee than the commercial one ^^.
The taste of the cake is very rich with both coffee, chocolate, and a lot of Coffee liqueur. It's an easy make-ahead dessert, prepare it and put it in the fridge, a good idea for a party. 
Serve it with a cup of hot coffee will be great esp. after a delicious dinner, haha.
