Nougat cake recipe without oven: step by step
Once you’ve gathered all the ingredients, it’s time to start our nougat cake recipe.
These are the steps you should follow:
1. Start at the base of the nougat cake
First of all, We crush the cookies. You can use a food processor, a mixer, or a mortar. For the latter you will need a little patience!
Once ready, Mix the crushed cookies with the melted butter and two tablespoons of our EVOOuntil obtaining a homogeneous consistency.
Place this mixture on the base of a removable mold, pressing firmly. And ready! Store it in the fridge while you prepare the filling.
2. Prepare the nougat cream for the filling
in a saucepan, Heat the milk together with the soft nougat, previously shredded. Add the rest of the olive oil and make sure to mix well, until the nougat dissolves completely.
On the other hand, Dip the gelatin sheets in cold water for about 5 to 10 minutes, until they are soft. Then, drain them and dissolve them in the nougat cream, until the appearance is uniform. If you don’t have jelly, you can always use powdered curd, which will also serve to give your cake a firmer texture.
later, Add the cream and heat everything over medium heat. You will have to stir constantly until it starts to boil. The goal is to get a kind of creamy nougat mousse.
Is the mixture homogeneous and without lumps? In that case, you can already pour it into the mold, based on the cookies that we had left in the fridge.
Let the cake cool, this time at room temperature. When a good time has passed, Put it back in the fridge, where it should rest at least 4 hoursuntil it has curdled well. Then you can remove it, but first…
3. Give it a sweet touch with the coverage
If you want it to be even richer, we recommend decorating your cake with a good topping that you can make in the microwave.
To do this, you will have to Melt the chocolate with the cream and the butter, stirring then with a spoon until you get a smooth mixture. If you want, you can also chop a handful of almonds and add it to the topping.
Ready? Pour it over the already compact cake and spread it evenly.
When it has settled, your delicious soft nougat cake will be more than ready to enjoy. Let’s eat, you earned it!
