Ingredients

Base:

500 g crushed small cookies
200 g margarine or butter
200 ml milk

Cream:

600 ml milk
2 packets of vanilla pudding powder
4 tablespoons sugar
300 ml whipping cream

Decoration:

150 g white chocolate
50 ml whipping cream

Preparation procedure

Preparing the base Crush the cookies into a fine crumb. Melt the butter (or margarine) and mix it with the ground cookies and milk until a moist, cohesive mixture forms. Press the mixture evenly into a round pan (diameter approx. 24 cm) and chill in the refrigerator to set.
Preparing the cream Mix the milk, sugar and pudding powder and cook a classic vanilla pudding. Let it cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally to prevent a skin from forming. Meanwhile, whip the whipping cream and then gently fold it into the cooled pudding. Spread the cream evenly over the chilled cookie base.
Decoration and finishing Melt the white chocolate with the cream in a double boiler. Pour over the pudding layer and spread evenly. Chill the cake in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight.
Serving Cut the no-bake pudding cake into neat slices and optionally garnish with grated chocolate or fruit.
