Quick wafer cake is a great solution for those who aren't confident in baking. It's a display of creativity that results in a surprisingly delicious dessert that can easily replace a complicated cake.

If you're tired of serving a plate of wafers at gatherings with friends and family and are still far from being a pastry master, this recipe is just what you need. Wafer cake doesn't require special skills, just patience when arranging the wafers in the pan. However, this doesn't mean that guests will use the cake form instead of a plate—the wafers are held together by pudding, softening them and turning them into a delicious dessert.

With this cake, there's no way for anything to go wrong. There's no risk that it won't rise, set, or taste good. It's a clever trick for people who aren't mainly accomplished in the kitchen or those looking for something new and delicious.

No-bake wafer cake is a sweet home run. It surprises with its taste and appearance because it looks perfect on a plate.

Ingredients:

  • 1 kg of cream-flavoured wafers,
  • 200 ml of milk for soaking the wafers, 
  • 2 raspberry pudding mixes,
  • 300 ml of milk for the pudding,
  • 700 ml of milk.

Decorations: 

  • coconut flakes,
  • strawberries,
  • mint leaves.

Preparation:

Step 1. Divide the wafers in half so they are no longer than the edge of the cake pan. Line the bottom of the form with baking paper. Soak the wafers in milk and place them vertically in the cake pan to completely fill it.

Step 2. Combine the pudding mixes and milk in a bowl. Stir thoroughly to avoid lumps, then pour into a saucepan. Heat until the raspberry pudding starts to thicken. Pour the mixture into the cake pan with the wafers.

Step 3. Cover the cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for two hours. Once the pudding cools and the wafers soften, the cake will be ready. Remove the cake pan ring to divide it into pieces. Decorate with coconut flakes, strawberries, and mint leaves. Enjoy!
