Khobzet Hwé (Breeze Cake)
The simplicity and comfort of no-bake ‘refrigerator’ cakes appeals even in places where refrigeration was not necessarily common. Much traditional Middle Eastern architecture was cleverly designed to maximize airflow and bring in cool drafts. This classic Tunisian dessert of crumbled butter biscuits drizzled with strong coffee and layered with rich buttercream and almonds evokes a tiramisu, and gets its whimsical name from the cool, breezy spots where the cake would be left to chill.
