TURRON CAKE WITHOUT OVEN

TURRON CAKE WITHOUT OVEN

What a good Christmas recipe! Is there a more Christmas ingredient than nougat? This turron cake without oven is very easy to make and very characteristic of this time of year. The nougat to use is soft, which is much sweeter than hard. In addition, this nougat cake does not need baking so anyone can prepare it at home.


INGREDIENTS TO MAKE A TURRÓN CAKE WITHOUT OVEN


100g of cookies María
50 butter
350ml of milk
350ml of whipping cream (whipping cream)
400g of soft nougat
6 leaves of neutral gelatin (or 15g of gelatin powder)
optionally almedra crocanti


RECIPE OF THE TURRON CAKE WITHOUT OVEN:

1.- We prepare the cookie base. For that, we crushed the cookie a little with our hands and put them in a chopper. Then we crush them well. You can do this step also with a hand blender

2.- Once crushed, add the butter at room temperature. We return to crush both ingredients. In the end, it will be like a kind of wet sand

3.- We put this mixture in a removable mold for pies. With a spoon or a glass we crush well. Without leaving open spaces through which the cake can escape. We put in the fridge while doing the following steps

4.- In a casserole we put the diced turron, the milk and the cream. We put it on a very soft fire, while stirring quite often

5.- When hot, add the gelatin, following the manufacturer's instructions. We integrate well, stirring for another two minutes


6.- When everything is integrated, add on the base of cookies. Then let stand 10 minutes and then put in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours. Better if it's a whole night

7.- Optionally and after an hour after putting it in the fridge, cover the surface with almond crocanti. The nougat cake, will still be liquid but its surface will be sufficiently curdled to withstand the weight of the almond. Let stand in the fridge until it settles completely

These cakes without oven are very easy to make. And this nougat was not going to be an exception. Besides, it's delicious!
