    It is finally getting a bit cooler again – that means we can finally turn on the oven again without having to heat up an already warm kitchen even more. In our apartment directly under the roof, it is pretty bad in summer cause we don’t have an a/c… Well, today I got another cake that doesn’t need to be baked: a delicious Chai Rice Pudding Cake with Raspberry Topping. Delicious no matter what season or outside temperature ;)

    No-Bake cakes and tarts are really great. You stir everything together, fill it into a baking tin and a few hours later you take the finished cake out of the fridge. That’s it. You don’t have to worry, you don’t have to stay at home… one hour more in the fridge does no harm the cake – 10 minutes more in the oven can ruin a cake completely ;) That’s why I think cakes like that are much more “relaxing”…

    There are many different kinds of cakes out there that do not need to be baked. Mine here is a cake made with rice pudding. The result is not light and fluffy like you have with many other no-bake cakes, but it is equally refreshing and incredibly delicious. Especially with a matching topping on top. I’ve chosen raspberries here because the flavors go well with the chai spices and the color looks very dramatic I think ;) You can use different kinds of berries or fruits, of course. Locally grown raspberries are not available all year round, so using something else is sometimes necessary. Even though the sauce can be made with frozen raspberries – those do not work as decorations, unfortunately. If you want to try something completely different here, try caramel sauce and some nuts… also really nice with the Chai spices/flavors!

    This recipe, once again, was created in collaboration with keeeper.com*. As you can see, my rice pudding rice is stored in some very stylish storage containers from keeeper called “bruni”*. Last summer we had a quite unpleasant “moth plague” in our cabinets, because I stored many baking ingredients in their original packaging, but often not sealed completely. Due to the heat and humidity in the kitchen, this turned into a “delicious buffet” for various bugs. After several not so nice “clean-ups” of the cabinets, I decided to fill everything into sealed containers. These not only protect your food from any kind of bugs and keep the stuff fresh for longer but also look good on the shelf. The “bruni” bulk containers, for example, are available in many different sizes and the lids even have adjustable openings that make dosing of rice, flour, etc. super easy. What more could you want?!

    What do you have in your cabinets to store food and baking ingredients? Before I switched to “bruni”* I had some large glass containers with tin lids for a while – they looked really nice, but unfortunately, the lids started to rust one after the other… something you really don’t want in your flour or cornflakes ;P

    INGREDIENTS / ZUTATEN

    • English
    • Deutsch
    For the chai mix:
    1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
    1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
    1/2 tsp. ground cardamom
    1/2 tsp. ground cloves
    1/4 tsp. ground ginger
    1/4 tsp. ground coriander

    For the base:
    5 oz. (140g) shortbread biscuits
    2.5 oz. (70g) butter, melted

    For the rice pudding:
    14 oz. (400ml) coconut milk
    17.6 oz. (500ml) milk
    1.8 oz. (50g) sugar (or xylitol)
    1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
    pinch of salt
    9 oz. (250g) white rice (for rice pudding)
    2 gelatin leaves
    7 oz. (200g) heavy cream, cold

    For the berry topping:
    7 oz. (200g) raspberries (fresh or frozen)
    1 tbsp. sugar (or xylitol)
    1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
    some lemon juice
    2 gelatin leaves

    some raspberries for decorations

    Für die Chai Gewürzmischung:
    1/2 TL gemahlener Zimt
    1/2 TL gemahlene Muskatnuss
    1/2 TL gemahlener Kardamom
    1/2 TL gemahlene Gewürznelke
    1/4 TL gemahlener Ingwer
    1/4 TL gemahlener Koriander

    Für den Boden:
    140g Butterkekse
    70g Butter, geschmolzen

    Für den Milcheis:
    400ml Kokosmilch
    500ml Milch
    50g Zucker (oder Xylit)
    1 1/2 TL Vanille Extrakt
    1 Prise Salz
    250g Milchreis
    2 Blätter Gelatine
    200g Sahne, kalt

    Für das Beeren Topping:
    200g Himbeeren (frisch oder TK-Ware)
    1 EL Zucker (oder Xylit)
    1/2 TL Vanille Extrakt
    etwas Zitronensaft
    2 Blätter Gelatine

    ein paar Himbeeren für die Dekoration

    You can also use regular milk for the rice pudding instead of the coconut milk. I did not choose coconut milk because I wanted to make the cake vegan – this cake will never be vegan if you are using gelatin – I just like the taste of coconut milk in combination with the Chai spices. It’s a great combination. But as I mentioned before – regular milk (or any other plant-based milk replacements for that matter) will work fine here.

    If you are using xylitol you can turn this cake into a sugar-free cake – if you also can get hold of sugar-free cookies for the base. Some supermarkets have that kind of cookies already… even here in Germany ;) Replacing the sugar with xylitol, for example, will not make this cake “healthy” – there are still loads of calories and carbs in there – but if you have problems with your blood sugar, this will definitely help you and you will be able to eat a slice without any regrets… I had two slices actually ;P

    DIRECTIONS / ZUBEREITUNG

    • English
    • Deutsch
    1. Add all the spices for the chai mix to a small bowl and mix to combine. Set aside. Line a 7 inches (18cm) springform tin with baking parchment and set aside. Add the cookies for the base to a freezer bag and crush with a rolling pin until you get fine crumbs. Melt the butter and add to the bag and mix until the crumbs are evenly moist. Pour into the prepared tin and press to the bottom to get one even layer – this works best with the back of a spoon. Place in the fridge until needed.

    2. For the rice pudding add the coconut milk, milk, sugar (or xylitol), vanilla extract, chia mix, and salt to a pot and bring to a boil while stirring constantly. When the milk is boiling add the rice and reduce the heat to the lowest setting – let simmer for about 25 minutes but stir often so nothing will burn. When the time is up turn off the heat, cover the pot and let stand on the stove for another 10-12 minutes so the rice can continue expanding.

    3. While the rice is about to get ready, add the gelatin leaves to a bowl with cold water and let soak for 5-7 minutes. Squeeze to get rid of some of the water and then add to the pot with the still hot rice and mix in well. Let everything come down to room temperature – continue mixing occasionally so the rice pudding is not getting dry on the surface.

    4. Add the heavy cream to a bowl and whisk until stiff peaks form. Add to the completely cooled rice pudding (in batches) and fold in. Pour the mix into the prepared tin with the cookie base and smooth out the top. Cover with some plastic wrap and place in the fridge for at least 4 hours.

    5. About 1 hour before the cake is ready, start preparing the berry topping. Puree the berries (if you use frozen ones let them defrost first) and press through a fine-mesh sieve to get rid of the seeds. Add together with the sugar (or xylitol), vanilla extract, and a splash of lemon juice to a bowl and mix. Add the two gelatin leaves to a bowl with cold water and let soak for 5-7 minutes, then squeeze and add to a small saucepan – heat up gently on the stove until the gelatin is melting. Remove from the heat and add 1-2 tablespoons of the pureed berries to the saucepan and mix to combine with the melted gelatin leaves. Add the rest of the pureed berries and mix well. Place in the fridge until needed. The mixture should thicken up so you can use it for the drip effect – the mix should be thick enough to not run off the cake completely.

    6. Remove the cooled cake from the tin and place on a serving plate. Pour the thickened berry puree on top of the cake and carefully push it over the edge of the cake in several spots to get the drip effect. You don’t need to push much of the puree over the edge to get the effect… ;) Place the cake back in the fridge for about one hour to cool down further and then decorate with some fresh raspberries before serving.

    1. Für die Gewürzmischung alle Gewürze in einem kleinen Behälter gut vermischen. Zur Seite stellen. Eine 18cm (7 inches) Springform mit Backpapier auslegen und zur Seite stellen. Die Kekse für den Boden in einen Gefrierbeutel geben und mit einem Nudelholz zu feinen Bröseln verarbeiten. Die Butter schmelzen und mit in den Gefrierbeutel geben – alles gut vermischen, damit die Brösel gleichmäßig durchfeuchtet sind. In die vorbereitete Form schütten und zu einer glatten Schicht zusammenpressen – funktioniert mit der Rückseite eines Löffels oder einem Glas mit ebenem Boden gut. Bis zur weiteren Verwendung in den Kühlschrank stellen.

    2. Für den Milchreis die Kokosmilch zusammen mit der Milch, Zucker (oder Xylit), Vanille Extrakt, Chia Gewürzmischung und der Prise Salz in einen Topf geben und unter ständigem Rühren aufkochen lassen. Den Milchreis dazugeben und die Hitzezufuhr auf die niedrigste Stufe reduzieren – den Milchreis unter Rühren für etwa 25 Minuten leicht köcheln lassen. Die Hitzezufuhr dann abstellen, den Topf mit einem Deckel oder Teller abdecken und den Milchreis dann noch einmal etwa 10-12 Minuten auf der sich abkühlenden Platte quellen lassen.

    3. Während der Milchreis quillt, die Gelatineblätter in kaltem Wasser 5-7 Minuten einweichen lassen, dann ausquetschen und zum noch heißen Milchreis dazugeben und gut unterrühren. Den Milchreis dann auf Zimmertemperatur abkühlen lassen – dabei immer wieder einmal durchrühren, damit sich keine trockene Kruste auf dem Milchreis bildet.

    4. Die kalte Sahne aufschlagen, bis sie steif ist und dann vorsichtig unter den abgekühlten Milchreis heben. Die Masse in die vorbereitete Form füllen und glatt streichen. Mit Klarsichtfolie abdecken und für mindestens 4 Stunden in den Kühlschrank stellen.

    5. Etwa 1 Stunde bevor die Torte durchgekühlt ist, das Topping vorbereiten und dafür die Himbeeren pürieren (TK-Ware vorab auftauen lassen) und durch ein Sieb streichen, um die Kerne zu entfernen. Zucker (oder Xylit), Vanille Extrakt und einen Spritzer Zitronensaft dazugeben und verrühren. Die Gelatineblätter für 5-7 Minuten in kaltem Wasser einweichen lassen, dann ausquetschen und in einen kleinen Topf geben und erwärmen, bis sie sich auflöst. Vom Herd ziehen und 1-2 EL von den pürierten Himbeeren zur Gelatine dazugeben und verrühren, dann den Rest dazugeben und unterrühren. Bis zur weiteren Verwendung in den Kühlschrank stellen. Das Himbeertopping sollte gut andicken, damit es später nicht komplett von der Torte runterfließt.

    6. Die durchgekühlte Torte aus der Form lösen und auf eine Servierplatte setzen. Das angedickte Püree auf der Torte verteilen und dabei an einigen Stellen vorsichtig über den Rand laufen lassen für den “Drip Effekt”. Die Torte zurück in den Kühlschrank stellen und mindestens noch 1 Stunde kühlen lassen, dann mit ein paar Himbeeren dekorieren und servieren.
