Zuccotto (ital. Zuccotto) is an Italian (Tuscan) dessert in the shape of a dome, invented, as they say, in Florence several centuries ago. This is a chilled biscuit cake with a delicate filling - traditionally made from ricotta with cocoa. You can experiment with this dessert by adding zest, dried fruits, berries or nuts to the filling. In this recipe, candied fruits and chocolate are added to the cream. Instead of biscuit cakes, savoiardi cookies are used.
