Cake in 15 Minutes Without an Oven: Recipe for Power Outages.
According to ТСН: Is it possible to make a cake in 15 minutes using only simple ingredients and without an oven? This cake does not require baking and is a great option for situations when you have little time or even no electricity.
We offer you one of the quickest cake recipes that can be made without the use of electrical appliances.
Ingredients for a Quick Cake
To prepare this dessert, you will only need a few simple ingredients.
Biscuits (any sand or sugar ones will do, preferably light-colored for a more delicate appearance) – 600 grams.
Sour cream – 400 grams with 30% fat content.
Condensed milk – 200 grams.
Whipped cream – 150 milliliters with 33% fat content.
Warm milk – 200 milliliters.
Preparing the Delicate Cream
Making the cream is very simple - it will take only a few minutes. In a deep bowl, you need to put cold sour cream, add condensed milk and whipped cream.
It is important that all ingredients are cold - directly from the refrigerator.
Since condensed milk is already sweet, adding sugar or powder is not necessary - it's important to maintain the balance of flavors so the cake doesn't turn out too sweet.
The cream can be whipped with a mixer for 3-4 minutes until the desired consistency is achieved. If there is no electricity, it can simply be vigorously stirred with a whisk until smooth: for this recipe, it is not necessary to achieve a perfectly fluffy mass.
The Quick Cake Assembling Process
After preparing the cream, you can immediately proceed to assemble the cake, as the layers (biscuits) are already ready. For this, you will need a detachable mold with a diameter of about 24 centimeters, although the size is not critical.
First, the biscuits should be quickly dipped in warm milk. It is important not to keep them in the milk too long so they don't become soggy - we only need the biscuits to soak. This makes the cake perfect for children, as no alcoholic soaking is used in the recipe.
The soaked biscuits are laid out as the first layer in the mold, and then generously spread with cream on top. Then the process is repeated, alternating between biscuits soaked in milk and cream. The recipe provides for the use of four layers of biscuits with enough cream for better soaking.
Filling and Decoration Options
If desired, you can add fruits or berries between the layers of cream, for example, bananas, which will make the dessert even tastier.
For decoration, you can use crumbs from leftover biscuits. The biscuits can be crushed in a blender or, if there is no electricity, crushed manually with a mallet in a bag. Leave some cream (about three tablespoons).
After removing the mold, the sides of the cake are smeared with the remaining cream, and then the cake is completely sprinkled with biscuit crumbs, including the top and sides.
The light color of the crumbs gives the dessert a delicate, appetizing appearance, which may make guests think that you actually baked a sponge cake.
Final Touch and Serving
The assembled cake is placed in the refrigerator for 30-50 minutes. This time is enough for the biscuits soaked in warm milk to absorb the cream completely, making the cake very tender.
The finished cake turns out tender, soft, moderately sweet and has an appetizing appearance when cut. It can be served with natural jam.
This quick and delicious cake will be an ideal option for any holiday or cozy family evening. Its simplicity in preparation allows you to enjoy sweetness without unnecessary worries, and fruits or berries will add originality to your dessert. Don't hesitate to experiment with fillings - imagine how many options are still waiting for you!
