Composition / ingredients
Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
Prepare the ingredients. To make a chocolate cake with cookies and nuts without baking, we will need: dark or bitter chocolate, white chocolate, a mixture of any nuts (I have pistachios, peanuts, walnuts), cookies, cream (20%), sugar, gelatin (leaf or in granules).
Step 2:
Soak gelatin in cold water and leave to swell. If you have gelatin in granules, then pour it with 60 ml of water.
Step 3:
Cut the cookies into small pieces.
Step 4:
Cut the nuts into small pieces.
Step 5:
White chocolate cut into small pieces. If you use chocolate in caplets, leave it like this.
Step 6:
Pour cream into a saucepan, add butter and sugar.
Step 7:
Stirring, bring to a boil over low heat and immediately remove from the stove.
Step 8:
Squeeze out the swollen gelatin and put it in hot cream. Stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved. We do the same if you have gelatin in granules.
Step 9:
Break the bitter chocolate into small pieces. Pour the chocolate with a creamy gelatin mixture and mix until smooth.
Step 10:
Cool the mixture slightly at room temperature. This is necessary so that when white chocolate is added, it does not melt, but retains its shape. And the cookies didn't get wet.
Step 11:
Add cookies, nuts and white chocolate to the resulting chocolate-gelatin mass. Mix it up.
Step 12:
Transfer the resulting chocolate-nut mass into a detachable form (16-18 cm) covered with food film and smooth it out. Put the cake in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours until completely solidified. Enjoy your meal!
The cake will really appeal to all chocolate lovers. You can use any mixture of nuts, but I specially took salted peanuts and salted pistachios so that the cake had a slightly salty taste. The combination of sweet chocolate and salted nuts is very successful. Therefore, I advise fans of salted caramel to pick up salted nuts. Plus, you can add a pinch of salt to the chocolate mixture.
