This refrigerated cake-like sweet is very famous back home in Jordan. It is not a real cake actually, no flour or egg is used, no baking is required, so it’s so easy that anyone can make, that’s why it’s called “Lazy Cake”. It can be prepared and kept in the freezer to take it out in any emergency unexpected visits, that your guests will be surprised how you made it that fast with that great chocolaty taste.
**You can use Digestive biscuts instead, but the traditional one which we're used since we were kids, is the one using Marie biscuits. ** New addition to the recipe: add 100gm melted cooking chocolate to the mixture.
For how long it has to be freezed ?
Hi Jessica.. freeze them for 3-4 hrs before serving, so it would hold together. and you can keep them up to 3-4 months or more! just then, take them out like 15 minutes or so before slicing so it would be easy to slice them so u can get clean slices! ;-) If you have any inquiries, please do send me over facebook in order to get notification at the spot! https://www.facebook.com/huda.abuhamdia?ref=tn_tnmn Thanks for pasing by and hope you enjoy this recipe when you make it. I know I do always! :-D
For an extra kick add a few shots of rum!!!!!

Hello Huda! I found your page by accident and I'm extremely eager to try many of your recipes. They look DELICIOUS! Isn't there more heating involved in Lazy Cakes? My friend was telling me the other day that she heats butter and milk and chocolate and other stuff together. You just heat the butter separately?
yes dear .. no other heating is required here, . that's y is "Lazy cake " :-D ..so many recipes i guess r there, but this the way how we make it at home . it's actually so so easy to make and soooo diliciuos .. it's one of my favourites.. hope u try it and like it as well .. pls send u ur inquiries on huda1016@hotmail.com so i can see them faster .. thanks allot dear :-)
Salam,
I did tasted this cake before but never done it myself. I was searching different recipes when I came across one with 1 egg in it! What do you think as yours doesn't have egg.
Thanks, Masouma
Salam Masouma, actually some people make the Lazy cake with eggs, but i prefer the one like this, without the eggs, and it turns out so so yummy ,, try it and see which one you prefer ..every person has his own taste u know ;-) let me know what happens with u dear :-) thanks for passing by..
...But still I think real baked chocolate is better, but it looks delicous!
It's called Lazy cake, but it's not a real cake of course :-) but it's definitely VERRRRY yummy :-) Hope u try it, and hope u like it my dear Bella :-)
