Looking for an easy, delicious dessert without turning on the oven? This no-bake tart combines layers of crispy cookies, a creamy filling, and an irresistible chocolate frosting.

Ideal to surprise family or guests on any occasion, the recipe is described below:

Ingredients

For the base and filling:
  • 200 g biscuits (Maria or Digestive type)
  • 700 ml milk
  • 80 g vanilla pudding powder
  • 250 ml whipped cream (whipped cream)
  • 120 ml sour cream (sour cream)
For the chocolate frosting:
  • 80 g dark chocolate
  • 50 ml of liquid cream

Preparation

  1. Prepare the pudding:
    • In a saucepan, mix the vanilla pudding powder with a little milk to form a homogeneous paste. Add the rest of the milk and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened. Let cool.
  2. Prepare the creamy mixture:
    • Once the pudding is cool, add the sour cream and mix well. Fold in whipped cream gently, using enveloping motions to keep the texture airy.
  3. Form the layers:
    • In a rectangular or square pan, place a layer of cookies on the base. Spread a portion of the creamy mixture over the cookies. Repeat this process, alternating layers of cookies and cream, until you end up with a layer of cream.
  4. Prepare the glaze:
    • Heat the liquid cream in the microwave or in a saucepan until hot, but not boiling. Add the chopped dark chocolate and mix until you get a smooth and shiny sauce.
  5. Top the cake:
    • Pour the chocolate frosting over the last layer of cream, spreading it evenly.
  6. Refrigerate:
    • Put the cake in the fridge for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, so that the cookies soften and the flavours blend in.

Additional Tips:

  • Variety of cookies: You can use chocolate or whole-grain cookies to vary the flavor and texture.
  • Decoration: Add chocolate shavings, sliced almonds, or fresh fruits like strawberries or raspberries for a special touch.
  • Frosting texture: If you prefer a thicker glaze, reduce the amount of liquid cream to 40 ml.
  • Presentation: To make it easier to unmold, line the mold with plastic wrap or wax paper.

Enjoy this delicious no-bake tart! It is the perfect dessert to share with family and friends.
