Since it’s my mom’s special birthday today, I decided to make her this No-Bake Chocolate Biscuit Cake, which is so easy to prepare and so delicious! 😀

INGREDIENTS:

• 2 packs-Tea Biscuits, crushed. (I, personally, prefer using McVities.)
• 1 cup-Hazelnuts, roughly chopped. (This is optional, if you’re allergic to nuts, skip this part.)
• 1 bar-Unsweetened Cooking Chocolate, roughly chopped.
• 1/2 cup-Sugar
• 3/4 cup-Milk
• Nutella
• 1/2 cup-Whipping Cream
• 1 tsp-Vanilla Essence

STEPS FOR THE CAKE:

1. Firstly, crush the tea biscuits in a big bowl. Make sure you crush them just enough to make them into small pieces and not a powder.
2. Pour the milk into a pan and bring it to a boil.
3. Add the Unsweetened Chocolate and Sugar to the milk  and mix until a smooth ganache-like consistency is formed.
4. Pour the chocolate into the bowl of biscuits and fold both the ingredients until they are blended well together.
5. Pour the chocolate biscuit mixture into an acrylic cake mould and flatten it with a spatula. Freeze for around 20 minutes.

STEPS FOR THE WHIP CREAM:

1. Pour the whip cream in a bowl and beat until peaks form.
2. Add 2 tbsp of Nutella(or more, if you’d like!) to the whip cream and fold until both the ingredients are blended well together.
3. Refrigerate for 15 minutes.

STEPS FOR SERVING THE CAKE:

1. Spread the whip cream evenly over the cake using a spatula or butter knife.
2. Top the cake with some hazelnuts on the borders to make the cake look presentable.

Voila! Enjoy your delicious No-Bake Chocolate Biscuit Cake. 😀
