Lotus slices are a quick no-bake dessert with a delicate mascarpone cream and crunchy Lotus Biscoff cookies. They are great with Sunday coffee, for celebrations, or as a „last resort“ when you need something impressive without baking.

For 12 portions

Ingredients

Lotus Biscoff cookies 2 packs
whipping cream 33 % 2 tubs (total 400 ml)
mascarpone 2 tubs (total 500 g)
powdered sugar 100 g
Lotus cookies 3 pcs (for sprinkling)
coarsely chopped nuts (walnuts/hazelnuts) a handful for sprinkling

Preparation procedure

Whip the cream Put mascarpone, cream and powdered sugar (optionally Lotus cream) into a bowl. Whip until smooth and firm; the cream must hold its shape.
Prepare the pan Line a cake pan (approx. 24×24 cm) or a small baking tray with parchment paper or cling film – this will make it easier to unmold and slice.
Layering Arrange the first layer of Lotus cookies on the bottom. Spread with one third of the cream. Repeat two more times (in total 3 layers of cookies and 3 layers of cream), the top layer should be cream.
Finishing Blend or crush three cookies finely and mix with the chopped nuts. Sprinkle the mixture over the top.
Chilling Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, so the cookies absorb moisture and the dessert firms up.
Serving Cut into neat slices with a sharp knife dipped in hot water.

Servings 12–16

Active preparation 15 minutes

Chilling min. 4 hours (ideally overnight)

Total time approx. 4 hours 15 minutes

Tips and variations

Cup version: Layer the cream and crushed Lotus into glasses – an ideal „express“ dessert.
No nuts: Replace the nuts with chocolate shavings, caramel sauce or cocoa.
More stable cream: On hot days you can add 1 whipped cream stabilizer.
Storage: Keeps in the fridge for 2–3 days, serve chilled.

Conclusion

No-bake Lotus bars combine a delicate, fluffy cream and the caramel flavor of the beloved cookies. Preparation is lightning-fast, the result looks luxurious and tastes even better after resting. Save the recipe – it’s exactly the dessert you’ll make over and over.
