Description

Lazy cat cake is a no-bake chocolate dessert made with crushed biscuits, cocoa powder, condensed milk, and butter. It’s rich, fudgy, and ridiculously easy to make with just a few pantry ingredients.


Ingredients

Scale

2 cups crushed tea biscuits or graham crackers

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 cup melted unsalted butter

1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk

1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)

Pinch of salt

Optional add-ins: 1/2 cup chopped walnuts, mini marshmallows, crushed pretzels


Instructions

1. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper.

2. Crush biscuits into small chunks, not crumbs.

3. In a bowl, whisk melted butter with cocoa powder until smooth.

4. Add condensed milk, vanilla, and salt. Mix well.

5. Fold in crushed biscuits and any add-ins.

6. Press mixture into the loaf pan evenly.

7. Chill for 2–3 hours or until firm.

8. Slice and serve cold.

Notes
