Description
This No-Bake Biscuit Cake is rich, creamy, chocolatey, and incredibly easy to make. Layers of chocolate biscuits, fluffy cream filling, and silky chocolate ganache come together in a stunning dessert that requires no oven at all.
Ingredients
For the Biscuit Layers:
400 g chocolate tea biscuits or chocolate digestive biscuits
2 cups cold milk for dipping
For the Cream Filling:
8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups heavy whipping cream
For the Chocolate Ganache:
1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
3/4 cup heavy cream
Optional Toppings:
Crushed chocolate biscuits
Chocolate curls
Mini chocolate chips
Cocoa powder dusting
Instructions
1. In a large bowl beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
2. In a separate bowl whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
3. Fold whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
4. Heat 3/4 cup heavy cream until hot but not boiling. Pour over chocolate chips and let sit for 2 minutes. Stir until smooth to make the ganache.
5. Quickly dip chocolate biscuits into cold milk and arrange a layer in the bottom of an 8×8-inch baking dish.
6. Spread a layer of cream filling over the biscuits.
7. Repeat layers of dipped biscuits and cream filling until all ingredients are used, finishing with a biscuit layer.
8. Pour chocolate ganache evenly over the top and smooth with a spatula.
9. Sprinkle with crushed biscuits, chocolate curls, or mini chocolate chips if desired.
10. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
11. Slice into squares and serve chilled.
Notes
Do not soak the biscuits; a quick dip is enough.
For the best texture, chill overnight before serving.
Use full-fat cream cheese for a richer filling.
Warm the knife before slicing for cleaner cuts.
Store refrigerated for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
