You can use a ready-made cardboard one or line the removable bottom of a pan with cling film or foil.
Step 2. Stack the chocolate chip cookies to form a sort of pyramid
Add the whipped cream between each layer of cookies.
Note: Before starting, you can remove the cream that makes up the Oreo filling and mix it with the whipped cream
Step 3. Once the pyramid is complete, cover it
Spread the whipped cream on all sides to cover and hide the cookies and cream inside.
Step 4. Cover the cake with a dome lid
Put it in the freezer to chill for 4-6 hours.
Step 5. An hour before eating, transfer it to the refrigerator
Step 6. Serve him
Your delicious dessert is ready, take it out of the refrigerator and enjoy it with whoever you want. You can cut it into slices like a normal cake.
Method 2 of 5: Make a No-Bake Cake in the "Tile Cake" Style
Prepare the Filling
Step 1. Pour the milk and pudding mix into a bowl
Stir with the whisk.
Step 2. Incorporate the whipped cream
Step 3. Arrange the graham crackers on the bottom of the pan in an orderly fashion
If necessary break them to create a layer that is as uniform and compact as possible.
Step 4. Spread half of the cream on the first layer of cookies
Use a silicone spatula to distribute it evenly.
Step 5. Add a second layer of graham crackers
Cover them with the remaining cream, again the spatula will help you spread it evenly.
Step 6. Add the third and final layer of cookies
Prepare the Decoration
Step 1. Pour the cocoa powder, milk and sugar into a saucepan
Bring the milk to a boil and let it boil for one minute, stirring frequently.
Step 2. Remove the pot from the heat
Let the milk cool for a minute.
Step 3. Add the butter and vanilla essence
Stir to melt the butter in hot milk more quickly.
Step 4. Let the cream cool, then pour it over the top layer of graham crackers
The spatula will help you to spread it evenly again.
Step 5. Cover the cake with foil or cling film
Put it in the refrigerator to let it cool. It is best to wait 8 hours or even a full day before eating it.
Step 6. Serve him
You can cut it into slices like a normal cake.
Method 3 of 5: Make a No-Bake Dessert with Fruit
Step 1. Choose the fruit variety you prefer
You will need about half a kilo, but the amount can vary based on the size of the pan. It can be fresh or canned, mixed or from a single variety, the only thing you need to do is cut it into small pieces. Use for example pineapple, strawberries, kiwis, peaches or cherries. If you prefer to use fresh fruit, the best thing to do is to choose the one that is in season.
Step 2. Crumble the graham crackers into a breadcrumb-like powder
You can use the pestle and mortar or you can hit them with a rolling pin after sealing them in a food bag.
Step 3. Make the jelly
Follow the instructions on the package. You can use both the transparent jelly, typical of fruit cakes, and the colored one.
Step 4. Pour the crumbled graham crackers into the bottom of the pan
Make sure they are enough to cover it with an even layer about an inch thick.
Step 5. Arrange the fruit neatly on the cookies
Again do your best to create a layer of even height.
Step 6. Cover the fruit with gelatin
To get a perfect dessert, the jelly should coat the fruit without coming into contact with the underlying cookies.
Step 7. Now add the condensed milk
Slowly pour it over the gelatin layer. Since it is very sweet, so much so that it is often used as a sugar substitute, it is best not to use too much.
Step 8. Put the cake in the refrigerator to cool
It will take about an hour for it to solidify, but it is better to wait longer so that it has time to become more consistent and full-bodied.
Before putting it in the refrigerator, it is best to cover it with cling film or a lid
Step 9. Enjoy your meal
Method 4 of 5: Make a no-bake dessert with almonds and raisins
Step 1. Crumble the dry biscuits
You need to turn them into a fine powder similar to breadcrumbs. Before continuing, make sure there are no whole pieces left.
Step 2. Melt the chocolate
The required amount corresponds to about half of the biscuit powder. You can melt it in a double boiler or in the microwave.
Step 3. Pour the chocolate into the container with the cookie powder
At this point, mix patiently to obtain a uniform mixture.
If you are using a chocolate with a high percentage of cocoa, you may need to add a little milk as you melt it. If you want, you can also add a little sugar to make it sweeter
Step 4. Add the water to the crumbled chocolate and cookie dough to make it spongy
Only incorporate a little at a time. It must have a compact and spongy consistency, not liquid.
Step 5. Distribute the dessert into the bowls
If you want, you can also add whipped cream.
Step 6. Now sprinkle it with the chopped almonds and raisins
You can use as much as you like.
Step 7. Put the cake in the refrigerator
When it's time to eat it, you can serve it cold or wait for it to come back to room temperature, depending on your preference.
Step 8. Finished
You can experiment by adding nuts or dried fruit of a different variety to find out which is your favorite version of this dessert.

Boil the syrup for 7-8 minutes, never stopping mixing it. Finally remove the pot from the heat.
Step 3. Incorporate the vanilla essence
Let the syrup cool undisturbed for a quarter of an hour. When it has reached room temperature, pour it into the bowl with the dried fruit and crumbled biscuits. Stir well to blend the ingredients.
Creating the Base of the Dessert
Step 1. Spread the syrup, biscuit and dried fruit mixture on the bottom of the pan
Press the mixture evenly with your fingers, a kitchen spatula, or the back of a spoon.

Prepare the Chocolate Ganache Cream

Place it in a bowl large enough to hold the cream as well.
Step 2. Pour the cream into a saucepan
Heat it slowly in a double boiler until it begins to boil.
Step 3. As soon as it reaches a boil, remove it from the heat
Pour it into the bowl that contains the chopped chocolate. Let it settle on the chocolate starting to melt it, then mix to get a smooth and even cream.
Complete the no-bake dessert with chocolate biscuits

It should have hardened.
Step 2. Pour the ganache cream onto the base
Distribute it evenly with a spatula.
Step 3. Cover the cake again, but make sure the paper does not come into contact with the cream

Step 4. Decorate the cake before serving
Sprinkle it with chopped dried and dehydrated fruit. Finally cut it into slices and serve it in individual portions.
