Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Matzoh sheets
- 2 cups Milk or almond milk (for soaking)
- 3.4 ounces Instant vanilla pudding mix
- 2 cups Cold milk (for pudding)
- 2 cups Whipped topping (e.g., whipped cream or non-dairy substitute)
- 1 cup Chocolate chips or chocolate bar (melted)
- as desired Optional toppings (e.g., nuts, shredded coconut, or fresh berries)
Instructions
In a shallow dish, pour 2 cups of milk or almond milk for soaking the matzoh sheets. Briefly dip each sheet of matzoh into the milk, one at a time, ensuring it becomes slightly softened but not soggy.
Prepare the vanilla pudding according to the package instructions. Typically, this involves whisking 3.4 ounces of pudding mix with 2 cups of cold milk until thickened.
Gently fold 1 cup of whipped topping into the vanilla pudding to create a creamy and airy filling.
On a serving platter or pan, lay one softened matzoh sheet as the base layer. Spread a thin, even layer of the pudding mixture over the sheet.
Repeat the layering process with the remaining matzoh sheets and pudding mixture, creating a multi-layer cake. End with a layer of pudding on top.
Pour the melted chocolate over the top layer, spreading it evenly to cover the cake. If desired, sprinkle optional toppings like nuts, shredded coconut, or fresh berries over the chocolate.
Refrigerate the matzoh cake for at least 2 hours, allowing the layers to set and the flavors to meld.
Slice into squares or rectangles and serve chilled. Enjoy your delicious no-cook matzoh cake!
