The Story Behind the Bake
Tinginys or Lazy Cake is a traditional no bake Lithuanian dessert, made with crushed biscuits, condensed milk and cocoa, however I made a healthier vegan version and jazzed it up a bit by adding a few extra ingredients. And it still tastes just as good and indulgent!
Lazy Cake is a taste of pure nostalgia to me, having fond childhood memories of my mum and grandma making it.
