For 20 portions

Ingredients

Base:

1 package of long ladyfingers
100 g coconut for coating

Cream (for filling and decorating):

250 g softened butter
1 can sweetened condensed milk Salko (cooked or uncooked)
2 tablespoons cocoa
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

To finish:

chocolate sprinkles
paper cupcake liners (optional)

Preparation procedure

Prepare the cream Beat the butter until light and fluffy. Gradually add the Salko and whip until a thick smooth cream forms. Stir in the cocoa and vanilla extract. Reserve some of the cream for decorating – it will go into a piping bag.
Assemble the ladyfingers Lightly spread cream between every two long ladyfingers and press together. Gently coat the sides of the joined sticks in coconut so the cream doesn't stick.
Decorate the top Put the remaining cream into a piping bag. Pipe even decorative swirls onto the joined ladyfingers. Sprinkle with chocolate sprinkles or shavings.
Let cool Put the finished sticks in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour so the cream firms up and the ladyfingers soften slightly.

Total preparation time

25 minutes + 1 hour chilling

Number of servings

20–25 pcs, depending on the size of the ladyfingers

Conclusion

These no-bake sponge sticks look impressive, taste like a luxurious patisserie dessert and are incredibly quick to prepare.
