Chocolate Overload Refrigerator Cake
January 25, 2015
Vacation during the holidays is everybody's most-awaited time of the year, aside from summer break when adults work in a school community or at home like my husband and I do. It's the best time to spend more quality time with the kids and other family members as well. Families go out of town or just stay home to do different memorable activities. For us, food trip never gets out of the picture.
On January 4, Papa and I decided to surprise our kids by adding a twist to their favorite vanilla ice cream by making it into a DIY Sundae! They really loved it! Even Papa liked it so much despite of being a non-sweet tooth.
We had so much left over marshmallows and chocolate syrup plus the fact that our Fudgee Barr Chocolate Cake pack was left untouched by the kids for so long. I also had tetra bricks of all-purpose cream in the fridge for weeks. Kuya suggested to make another inventive dessert to make it more special. I thought of making a refrigerator cake because it would not require baking or steaming and it could be another bonding session with my big boy. We hurriedly went to the supermarket and purchased Graham Crackers and condensed milk.
I'm so proud to say that what Kuya and I did turned out to be a mouth-watering sweet treat that chocoholics wouldn't resist. Again, Papa loved it so much!
Here are the ingredients and the steps to do it:
Ingredients
24 pieces Graham Crackers
1 can of condensed milk (300 ml)
10 pieces Fudgee Barr chocolate cream-filled bar or any chocolate cake
3 tetra bricks of all-purpose cream (750 ml)
mini marshmallows and chocolate syrup for topping (optional)
Procedure
1. Combine all-purpose cream and condensed milk in a bowl. Mix well but don't overdo it.
2. Lay graham crackers in a big plastic container preferably with a lid.
3. Add around 1/4 inch thick layer of the cream mixture on top of the graham crackers.
4. Add in the crushed chocolate cake.
5. Repeat stacking the grahams, cream mixture, and crushed chocolate cake until you reach the top of the container.
6. Pour the rest of the cream mixture on top of the cake. Garnish the top with crushed chocolate cake, mini marshmallows, and chocolate syrup.
7. Chill for around 30-40 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
"People have often asked me whether what I know about love has spoiled it for me. And I just simply say, 'Hardly.' You can know every single ingredient in a piece of chocolate cake, and then when you sit down and eat that cake, you can still feel that joy."
