Lazy cake
Description
Lazy cake is a no-bake dessert combining crushed Marie biscuits with a rich mixture of melted butter, cocoa powder, and sweetened condensed milk. After mixing, the biscuit chunks are coated evenly and pressed into a loaf pan or rolled into a log using foil. It is then frozen for several hours until set, creating a firm chocolate biscuit cake. The cookies provide a crunchy texture, tempered by the creamy cocoa and condensed milk mixture, resulting in a dense, fudgy consistency that slices easily.
The method requires no baking, relying on chilling to solidify the cake, making it accessible for home cooks without an oven. You can cut it into slices and serve cold, making it a handy dessert or snack. The straightforward ingredients and preparation suit casual entertaining or preparing a sweet treat ahead of time.
Ingredients
- 2 packs Marie biscuits total 6 oz (180g, or digestive biscuits or graham crackers, 36 pieces
- 1/2 cup butter 100 g, 1 stick, melted
- 6 tablespoon cocoa powder natural or dutch processed
- 1/2 of a 14oz can sweetened condensed milk total used is 200 g or 7 oz sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- Break the biscuits into large chunks and set aside. If making the lazy cake in a loaf pan, lightly grease a loaf pan and line with parchment paper. (Alternately, you can roll the lazy cake up in aluminum foil to make a salami type shape)
- In a large bowl, mix together the melted butter, cocoa powder and condensed milk until smooth and combined. Add the biscuit pieces and fold to combine.
- Place the biscuit and chocolate mixture into the prepared loaf pan and freeze for 2-3 hours until set. Or, place the mixture on a sheet of foil and squeeze into a log/cylindrical shape and freeze.
