Ingredients:

  • 2 cups crushed biscuits (like graham crackers, digestive, or tea biscuits)

  • ½ cup cocoa powder

  • ⅓ cup sugar (or to taste)

  • ½ cup water

  • ¼ cup butter or coconut oil

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional toppings: crushed nuts, shredded coconut, melted chocolate, or sprinkles

Preparation:

  1. Prepare the Base:

    • Place your biscuits in a ziplock bag and crush them with a rolling pin until they resemble coarse crumbs. Alternatively, use a food processor for speed.

  2. Make the Cocoa Mixture:

    • In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the cocoa powder, sugar, butter (or coconut oil), and water.

    • Stir continuously until everything melts and combines into a smooth mixture. Remove from heat and add vanilla extract.

  3. Combine:

    • Pour the warm cocoa mixture over the crushed biscuits and mix until all the crumbs are well coated and the mixture sticks together.

  4. Shape the Cake:

    • Transfer the mixture into a lined cake pan, bowl, or even a loaf tin. Press down firmly with a spoon or spatula to compact the cake.

    • You can top it with nuts, coconut, or chocolate chips at this stage if desired.

  5. Chill:

    • Place the cake in the fridge for at least 1 hour to firm up. For a quicker result, freeze it for 20–30 minutes.

  6. Serve:

    • Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy your decadent, no-bake treat!

Serving and Storage Tips:

  • Best served chilled straight from the fridge.

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

  • For a firmer texture, keep it in the freezer and thaw slightly before serving.

  • Pairs well with coffee, tea, or a scoop of ice cream.
