Are you a fan of sweet desserts but don't have time to prepare them? No-bake cakes are for you. Graham crackers or ladyfingers replace the sponge or shortcrust base, which is layered with a creamy filling. What will be the best? Use what you already have at home. It could be pudding, curd cheese, cream cheese, or whipped cream.
How to finish the cake? There are many options. You can use jelly, melted chocolate, caramel, or fruits. Preparing such a cake will take less than 10 minutes, regardless of your chosen products. However, remember that most no-bake cakes require cooling. The mixture "sets" under the influence of cold temperature.
Don’t want to wait that long? Check out this simple recipe for no-bake cake. You only need four ingredients — crispy, buttery graham crackers, creamy cheese, a can of condensed milk, and dark chocolate. The filling is so thick that it doesn't need to be chilled.
