A no-bake cookie cake is a very tasty treat that combines the ease of a no-bake recipe with the luxury of a rich, decadent dessert. Choose your preferred cookie flavors to make this yummy creation. Chocolate chip, peanut butter, and oatmeal raisin are some classic options – although you can always pick others if you want to be more adventurous!
Then gather together all your ingredients; typically these include cookie crumbs, butter, sugar and any additional mix-ins or toppings that take your fancy. Mix the crumbs with melted butter and sugar until they form a thick dough-like mixture. Press this into an even layer on the bottom and sides of either a cake or springform pan.
When you have prepared your cookie crust it’s time for adding fillings if desired; whipped cream, chocolate ganache, fresh fruit or chopped nuts are all popular choices. Layer these on top of the crust to create a deliciously indulgent cake-like dessert.
Finally refrigerate for several hours until firm and set then slice up & serve! Your no bake cookie cake will be eagerly devoured by friends and family who won’t be able to resist its unique charm
Ingredients:
3 cups of favorite cookie crumbs (e.g. chocolate chip, graham crackers, Oreos)
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup granulated sugar (optional, adjust to taste)
1 cup preferred filling or toppings (e.g. whipped cream, chocolate ganache, fruit, nuts)
Instructions:
In a mixing bowl, combine cookie crumbs with melted butter and granulated sugar (if using), mix until it looks like wet sand.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a cake or springform pan to form an even layer. Use the back of a spoon or measuring cup to press crumbs down.
Once crust is formed spread your desired filling or toppings evenly over it – you could layer on whipped cream; pour over chocolate ganache; arrange fresh fruits or nuts.
