Chocolate Cake without Baking – That’s How it Works

A chocolate cake without baking is a refreshing taste experience, especially in summer, and the oven can be left out on hot days. Of course, the chocolaty fridge cake also tastes good in winter and is very easy to make.

The ingredients for the no-bake chocolate cake

Of course, the chocolate cake without baking does not come without chocolate and cocoa powder. Here is the complete list of ingredients at a glance:

• 30 shortbread cookies
• 200 grams of dark chocolate
• 100 grams of butter
• 100 grams of sugar
• 300 milliliters of milk
• 2 cups of whipped cream, 200 milliliters each
• 1 packet of chocolate cream powder to mix cold
• 2 tablespoons of honey
• Cocoa powder for sprinkling

This is how the chocolate cake succeeds

The base and the cream of the cake are made separately.

1. For the base, melt the chocolate with the butter, sugar, and half the milk in a saucepan.
2. Place the biscuits in a freezer bag and roughly crush them with a rolling pin.
3. The crushed biscuits and the liquid chocolate mass are mixed together and smoothed out in a cake tin (loaf pan or springform pan).
4. Place the mold in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to set the base.
5. In the meantime, you can make the cream. To do this, put the cream, the remaining milk, honey, and the chocolate cream powder in a bowl and mix the ingredients well with the hand mixer.
6. Put the cream on the bottom and smooth it out. Then put the chocolate cake in the fridge for at least 4 hours.
7. For the look, you can sprinkle the cake with cocoa powder or garnish with toasted slivers of almonds.
8. And another tip for fans of white chocolate: replace the dark chocolate with white chocolate. Then reduce the sugar content. Simply swap out the chocolate cream powder and use vanilla cream powder instead.
