Description
This No Bake Heaven On Earth Cake is a delightful layered dessert that combines fluffy whipped cream, rich vanilla pudding, and sweet fruits without the hassle of baking.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ cup butter, melted
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups fresh fruit (such as strawberries, blueberries, or bananas)
Instructions
- Prepare the crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, cocoa powder, and melted butter. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to create an even layer. Set aside.
- Make the whipped cream: In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to whip until stiff peaks form. This will take about 3-5 minutes.
- Layer the cake: Spread half of the whipped cream mixture over the crust in the springform pan. Evenly distribute half of the fresh fruit on top of the whipped cream. Repeat the layers with the remaining whipped cream and fruit.
- Chill: Cover the cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight if you can wait. This allows the flavors to meld and the cake to set properly.
- Serve: Once chilled, carefully remove the sides of the springform pan. Garnish with additional fruit or chocolate shavings if desired. Slice and serve this heavenly treat to your guests or enjoy it all by yourself!
Notes
- This cake is perfect for hot summer days.
- You can use any combination of fresh fruits.
