A glass of milk and a bag of cookies
that's what you'll need to make this
delicious chocolate cake I recently saw
this cake on made in Japan and
Christina Randall's channel and I
thought it would be really fun to share
my version with you guys
it's moist and chocolaty and it will be
amazed how easy it is to make you'll
need some crispy cookies of your choice
I was using two different kinds it's
what I had so use what you have I will
say this though the more chocolaty and
the more flavorful your cookies are
obviously the more flavorful your cake
will be however if you're using very
basic cookies like I was I will give you
some tips as we go along
to make your cake more flavorful you're
going to process these cookies until
really fine now the reason this recipe
works is because if you take a moment to
think about it cookies contain all the
basic ingredients you would need to make
a cake so flour cocoa powder sugar
so consider the cookies the dry
ingredients if you're new to my channel
welcome make sure to subscribe and click
that notification bell I post new videos
every week add the cookies to a large
bowl along with some baking powder we
really need that leavening agent to give
rise and lift to this cake otherwise
it's just going to be dense and flat as
a cookie give these ingredients a rough
mix and you're going to add the warm
milk I found that using warm milk
instead of cold milk really hydrates
this mixture properly now as you can see
of this batter we'll have some small
lumps here and there what you can do is
take an immersion blender and blend this
batter this is optional I've tried to
make the cake both ways with the
immersion blender and without and as
long as you've processed the cookies
really fine in the beginning the cake
comes out just fine both ways if you do
have it though use it as the cake will
have better texture now this ladies and
gentlemen is your three ingredients cake
batter now I'm going to give you some
tips if you're using very basic cookies
what you can do to boost the flavor of
this cake is add some chocolate chips if
you have those add some additional cocoa
powder or Frost the
cake-like I did pour the cake batter
into a greased pan lined with parchment
paper
make sure you grease the parchment paper
as well and you're going to bake the
cake and a preheated oven at 170 degrees
Celsius or 340 Fahrenheit for around 15
minutes do not over bake this cake allow
the cake to cool in the pan for three
minutes and then turn it over and take
it out I was so shocked how soft this
cake is it's incredible that you can
make a cake with just the bag of cookies
and a glass of milk now this is optional
but really recommended especially if
you're using basic cookies like I was
for the cake sponge we're going to frost
the cake I'm using good old with that
lot it's easy it's delicious and it
really gives you that chocolate kick I
will leave in the description box though
and alternative which is my 1-minute
chocolate fudge frosting it's just as
delicious and it's made with pantry
staples that you probably already have
laying around so we're going to
immediately cut into this and we're
going to evaluate the cake together
first of all I was so amazed how soft
this cake was it's a beautiful soft
moist cake and it was flavorful and
delicious considering this was made with
just cookies and milk now I would be
lying to you if I said this substitutes
a real chocolate cake no it doesn't
nothing substitutes a delicious homemade
chocolate cake from scratch however
considering the times for living right
now and considering that this was made
with few ingredients this was great
and good we made a cake without flour
without eggs without sugar without
butter I consider this a delicious
success
you
