no-bake oreo crust blueberry chocolate cake.


Happy Sunday everyone! :)

I'm loving the fact that today is Sunday... again! And I got a one week free (they called it "reading-week" - time for students to stay at home, reading as many books as we can and preparing for the upcoming exams, assignments and presentations - starts tomorrow!. Happy to get a little rest from the university and hopefully I still can manage my time well to study and have fun as well. And oh, tomorrow is June already. Almost forgot about it... How time really flies!

Today, this Blueberry Chocolate Cake with Oreo Crust is one lovely thing that makes my day much more brighter. I just finished off my breakfast with a BIG slice! Oooops. This decadent chocolate cake is just perfect for all chocolate lovers, including me.


This cake looks elegant somehow but also a little effortless. Besides it's no-bake, you just like combined everything together in one bowl and it just happened to end in a simply, beautiful way.


The cake itself is soo yummy, sweet, silky-textured, chocolatey and as always I use the dark chocolate one. Dark chocolate is the best, isn't it! (and healthier also). And what I love the most is the combination of the chocolate cake batter with Oreo crust, then the blueberry topping which gave you an extra fresh-fruity flavour!.


I know my readers will love this recipe! It's super easy to make. Just make sure that you chill the cake for at least five hours in the fridge (better overnight!), until it's able to be sliced perfectly. So, if you fancy giving it a try, here's the recipe to follow!


Making a 18-20 cm cake.

For the Oreo-crust:

Ingredients: 

14-16 Oreos, crushed
6 tablespoons (85 grams) unsalted butter, melted

Directions:

1). In a large bowl, mix together the crushed Oreos and melted butter.
2). Press onto the buttom of a well greased prepared tart pan with removable bottom. 
3). Covered with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator to chill (for at least 30 minutes) while you make the filling.

For the chocolate filling and assembling:

Ingredients:

300 ml heavy cream
2 teaspoons powdered or icing sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
200 gr dark chocolate, melted
fresh blueberries, for topping

Directions:

1). Pour the cream into a large bowl, then add the icing sugar and vanilla extract.
2). Whisk until the mixture forms soft peaks (1-2 minutes), then gradually whisk in the melted chocolate until the mixture thickens (take care not to over-whip the batter!).
3). Spoon the mixture into the chilled biscuit case and spread out. 
4). Cover and chill for at least 5 hours or better overnight, until the filling has completely set.
5). Top the cake with fresh blueberries or any other kind of berries you like.
6). Done and serve!.

Enjoy guys! Really hope that you all like it! :)

one heavenly slice!

Have a blessed Sunday!
