Non-Bake Flourless Biscuit Cake


Made this yummy choco biscuit cake over the weekend.  To me, it can be referred to as a non-bake cake and also a biscuit as part of the ingredients is biscuits.  For some people, chocolate can be a delicious obession and this easy-to-make biscuit cake is just lovely to enjoy!










This can be served as a dessert, kept chilled or even as a snack ....... crunchy, nutty, not too sweet and full of yummy chocolate!

Ingredients
  • 6 oz bittersweet couverture
  • 6 oz butter/margarine
  • 6 oz digestive buscuits  -  broken up into pieces
  • 1.1/2  Tbsp golden syrup
  • 1.1/2  oz raisins
  • 1.1/2  oz dried apricot
  • 3 oz flaked almonds -  slightly roasted
Method
  1. Lightly grease an 8 inch round springform cake tin.  Keep aside.
  2. Lightly chop up the apricots and raisins into smaller pieces.  Keep aside.
  3. Break up the chocolate into a bowl and place over a pan of simmering water  OR use a double boiler.  Stir.
  4. Add in butter and syrup and keep stirring till the chocolate and butter have melted.  Remove from heat and let cool for a while.
  5. Mix the broken up pieces of biscuits, raisins, apricots and almond flakes in a mixing bowl.
  6. Pour in the cooled chocolate mixture and mix till well combined.
  7. Transfer the mixture into the lightly greased cake tin, press lightly and level the top.
  8. Cover and chill in the fridge for at least an hour before serving.
  9. Keep refrigerated.
Variation

Use other biscuits like crackers or petit beurre biscuits.

    I would love to have a slice for my dessert now. It is nice to see a no-bake cake. This would be great for very warm days when turning on the oven is not a good idea.

Herbal Jelly ~ Gui Ling Gao

H erbal Jelly ~ Gui Ling Ga o literally translated means 'Tortoise Jelly' is one of my family's favourite desserts.  It's much more economical to prepare this at home for you'll need to fork out between Rm 9 to Rm 11 for a bowl of this cooling dessert in any of those herbal tea outlets.  This soothing jelly, served chilled, is supposed to be able to help reduce our body heat, helps to get rid of toxins and is believed to be good for the skin thus culminating a healthier complexion.

Chicken Floss Cake ~ 鸡肉松蛋糕

It's normal to find buns coated with meat floss in any bakery, but yet to find a meat floss coated piece of cake.  I saw this Chicken Floss Cake on youtube and was eager to give this a shot.  The recipe is quite similar to a chiffon cake and I was curious to find out the taste which should be slightly sweetish and saltish.  Wouldn't it be weird, I wonder.  But it turned out that the taste is rather unique with a light and soft texture and my family members gave me a thumbs up and asked for more! Chicken Floss Cake ~  鸡肉松蛋糕           Ingredients (A) 4 egg yolks 40 ml oil 50 ml milk 65 gm plain flour, sifted Chicken floss White sesame seeds Chopped spring onions (optional) a pinch of salt (B)  4 egg whites        40 gm caster sugar Method In a bowl, beat egg yolks, add in oil, mix well, then add in milk. Mix in sifted flour till well combined. In another clean bowl, beat egg whites till frothy, then add in sugar in 2 batches and beat til
