If your answer is no, you could change your mind by tasting it. Here are the ingredients and the complete method to make it.

Ready to prepare? This is how:

  1. Butter the bottom and edges of the baking tin that you will use: one of about 24 cm will be fine, then cover with baking paper
  2. Blend a few biscuits at a time in a mixer, reducing them to a fine powder
  3. Into a bowl, pour the chopped biscuits and add the milk, mixing everything in gradually
  4. When you have a firm mixture, add all the contents of the baking powder sachet
  5. At this point, pour into the baking tin and turn on the oven at 175-180 degrees for 25 minutes
  6. To check if the cake is ready, insert a toothpick into the cake: if it comes out dry, the cake is ready

Obviously, being such a simple dessert, this light and fluffy cake lends itself to many variations. Pears, chopped hazelnuts, chocolate chips, cream: you can add whatever you want. Even on its own, however, the 3-ingredient cake remains a great way to make a tasty dessert with an eye on your figure.
