  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  1 1/2        packets  morning coffee biscuits (250g pkts) 
                        [12 ounces total], see Note in step 2.
  1                cup  boiling water
  2        tablespoons  instant coffee powder
  1            package  vanilla instant pudding mix 
                        [3 ounces] -- (85 g)
  2            cartons  thickened cream [2 1/2 cups total] 
                        -- (300 ml)
  1 1/2           cups  milk
  1            package  chocolate instant pudding mix 
                        [3 ounces] -- (85 g)
  6             ounces  dark chocolate  [or a little less] 
                        -- (150 g)
  2             ounces  unsalted butter [or a little less] 
                        -- (50 g)
                        maraschino cherries to decorate 
                        if desired

1. Line a 8 x 12 1/2-inch lamington tin with a sheet of foil to 
cover base and two opposite sides, bringing foil 2 inches above
edge of pan.  [A lamington tin is a flat pan with sides.]

2. Quickly dip one third of biscuits into combined water and 
coffee. Place over base of prepared pan.

Note:  Morning coffee biscuits are square plain sweet biscuits.
They are not sweet filled cream biscuits, but are sweeter than
a plain sao biscuit. You could use any number of things as a
substitute as long as it is sweet and plain!

3. Combine vanilla pudding mix, half the cream and half the 
milk in a small bowl, beat with an electric mixer for 
about 1 minute, or until mixture is thick. Spread evenly over 
biscuit base.

4. Dip half the remaining biscuits into water and coffee mixture.
Place biscuits on top of vanilla pudding.

5. Combine chocolate pudding mix, remaining cream and remaining 
milk in a small bowl, beat with an electric mixer for 1 minute, 
or until mixture is thick. Spread evenly over biscuits in pan.

6. Dip remaining biscuits into remaining water and coffee 
mixture.  Place over chocolate pudding.

7. Combine chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl, stir over a 
pan of simmering water until chocolate is melted. Spread over 
biscuits. Cover, refrigerate for several hours, or until firm.

8. Serve cut in squares, decorate with maraschino cherries.
