Oh my goodness. Are you looking for a quick dairy-free dessert that you can put together in under five minutes? I needed a dairy-free dessert for a special meal but was low on time. So I put these together after seeing a few ideas using dairy-free yoghurt and crushed biscuits. Honestly, my two girls were fighting over them – literally!
Flexible dairy-free dessert recipe using your choice of ingredients!
It’s hard to call this a recipe, it’s more of an idea, as it is just layering different shop-bought dairy-free desserts and dairy-free biscuits that have been crushed in a bag with a rolling pin. The options for switching this around and varying ingredients are huge.
- Use your choice of dairy-free yoghurt
- Add fruit compote as a layer
- Vary your choice of dairy-free crushed biscuits
- Use dairy-free cakes instead of biscuits (shop bought for speed)
Ingredients for this dessert.
I used Alpro caramel, chocolate and vanilla desserts to make these. I experimented by adding crushed Oreos in one dessert and crushed Lotus biscuits in the other just to compare the two. One carton of each dessert was enough between the two sundae dishes. Of course, this may vary depending on the size of the dish you use.

The Alpro chocolate dessert offers both dark chocolate and lighter chocolate. I used the light chocolate one as our preference but it is entirely up to you.
Method
This can be put together in any way you prefer, but I started with a layer of crushed biscuits at the bottom of each dish and then added the chocolate dessert. I then added more crushed biscuits followed by the caramel dessert. Another layer of crushed biscuits followed and topped off with the vanilla dessert. I sprinkled more crushed biscuits on the top to finish it off.
OK – so not exactly fine dining, but it does make a quick dessert and is super quick to make!
This post is all about a 5-minute quick dairy-free dessert. Enjoy!
