About No Bake Lamington Recipe
A lamington is an Australian cake made from squares of butter cake or sponge cake coated in an outer layer of chocolate sauce and rolled in desiccated coconut. The thin mixture is absorbed into the outside of the sponge cake and left to set, giving the cake a distinctive texture.
In Australia, they are commonly found in local bakeries and supermarkets, but local coffee shops are increasingly serving these little cakes as a posh, yet nostalgic, bite.
Ingredients for No Bake Lamington Recipe
Chocolate Chips :
Semi-sweet chocolate chips are typically made from sugar, chocolate, cocoa butter, milkfat, and soy lecithin, which acts as an emulsifier. They're also known as semi-sweet morsels.
Icing sugar :
It dissolves quickly, making it ideal for use in icings, buttercream, and frostings, as well as some candies and for dusting baked cakes and cookies.
Coconut :
Coconut meat is delicious and slightly sweet, and it can be eaten raw or dried. It is used to make a variety of products, including coconut milk, cream, and oil.
