Wrap the pan in plastic and freeze for about 3 hours, until the cream sets. Unmold carefully onto a flat plate, decorate with more cookies or cream, and serve cold, with fresh fruit if you like. ## Additional Tips ### Use warm milk Warm milk soaks into the cookies faster without making them fall apart, so they turn cake-like after freezing. ### Add manjar A layer of manjar between the cream and cookies adds a caramel note and helps the layers stay in place when sliced. ### Stop at firm peaks Overwhipping the cream will turn it into butter. | Original ingredient | Substitute | Ratio | Flavor note | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Tritón cookies | Oreo cookies | 1:1 | Same result | | Heavy cream | Coconut whipping cream | 1:1 | Dairy-free | | Milk | Cold coffee | 1:1 | Mocha flavor | | Springform pan | Glass dish | | Serve with a spoon | ## Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) ### 1. Can I use Oreos instead of Tritón? Yes. Both are chocolate sandwich cookies with a cream filling, so the method is the same. ### 2. What if I do not have a springform pan? Use a glass or ceramic dish and serve the cake straight from it with a spoon. ### 3. How do I keep the cream from splitting? Stop whipping as soon as firm peaks form. ### 4. Can I make a vegan version? Yes, with plant-based whipping cream, plant milk, and cookies free of animal ingredients. ## What Is Torta de Galletas Tritón?
