Last week I was grocery shopping and I saw in the fresh cheese section Quark mixed with Joghurt and Spekulatius spices. I bought still don't knowing what to do with it, but very intrigued buy the holiday flavour. Then it hit me: just do the regular no-bake joghurt cake and swap the joghurt with the quark!
This is my go to cake for the summer usually, because it's no bake, so no switching on the oven in the heat. It can be done with any kind of full fat joghurt or quark I might say now!
Ingredients:
400/450g of full fat joghurt ot quark with joghurt
200g of cream to whip
250g of butter cookies or in this case Spekulatius Cookies
70-100g of butter, melted
Gelatine enough for 500ml of liquid
Accessories:
A tin that opens of 24-26cm of diameter.
Hand-mixer to whip the cream
How to:
Cover the bottom of the tin with some plastic wrap or baking paper
Grind the cookies - the finer the better and mix with the melted butter
Put in the tin and press the crumbs together with a spoon. You can put some cookies on the sides as well, but not necessary
Put the tin in the fridge to harden
In the meantime prepare the gelatine as on the package
Whip the cream
Incorporate the gelatine into the joghurt
When the gelatine is well incorporated mix in the whipped cream, make gentle movements from top to bottom
Pour the cream-joghurt mix on the cookie base, decorate if you wish to, and put back in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
Notes:
If you like more cream, double the joghurt amout and use more gelatine
I tried with also just joghurt and no whipped cream, still good, but not as creamy
I also tried with Skyr joghurt (high in protein)😋
Fruit joghurt is my favorite, but you can also use plain joghurt and put fruits on top
It can also be done in glasses or cups to eat from the glass
