LITHUANIAN LAZY CAKE

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 tablespoon cocoa powder 
  • 1/4 cup milk 
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt 
  • 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon 
  • 4 ounces unsalted European butter 
  • 360 grams of cookies chopped into about 1 inch pieces (we used two different types of cookies)

DIRECTIONS

  1. Mix the cocoa powder and milk until there are no lumps. Then, stir in cinnamon and salt.
  2. In a saucepan, melt the butter with the sweetened condensed milk and add the cocoa mixture until combined. Cook over medium heat, until it starts to thicken for about 3 to 5 minutes.
  3. Put the cookies into a medium sized bowl and pour the chocolate mixture over the cookies. Stir to make sure everything is coated evenly. 
  4. Then, pour the mixture into a 5”x9” loaf pan that is lined with plastic wrap.
  5. After pouring into the pan, remove from the cake and try to mold it into a cylinder.
  6. Put it in the fridge and cool for 3 to 4 hours 

Slice into thin pieces and enjoy!
