Steps
1 Done | Crush Marie biscuits into four pieces. |
2 Done | In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter until it becomes liquid. |
3 Done | Dry ingredientsIn a large bowl, combine the crushed biscuits, Milo powder, and salt. Mix well until evenly distributed. |
4 Done | Wet ingredientsIn a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, condensed milk, and vanilla extract. Stir well until smooth and creamy. |
5 Done | Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing well after each addition. The dough should be thick and sticky. |
6 Done | Line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper. This will prevent the cake from sticking to the pan and make it easier to remove later. |
7 Done | Transfer the dough into the prepared pan and press it down firmly with a spoon or spatula to create an even layer. Make sure the dough is evenly distributed and compacted. |
8 Done | Sprinkle the chopped almonds or chocolate shavings on top of the cake for decoration, if desired. |
9 Done | Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours or overnight to allow it to set and firm up. |
10 Done | Once the cake is chilled and set, slice it into squares and serve. |
