- Line a round cake tin or a baking dish with parchment paper.
- Pour the biscuit mixture into the prepared tin and spread it out evenly.
- Chill:
- Place the cake in the refrigerator to set for at least 2-3 hours, or until firm.
- Serve:
- Once set, remove the cake from the tin and transfer it to a serving plate.
- Garnish with chopped nuts or chocolate chips if desired.
- Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy your irresistible biscuit cake!
