Delicious Cream Biscuit Cake

This no-bake cream biscuit cake is a delightful and easy-to-make dessert, perfect for any occasion. It features layers of tender biscuits and a rich, creamy custard infused with labneh cheese and whipped cream, offering a unique blend of sweetness and a hint of tang. The custard is prepared by cooking milk, starch, and flour until thick, then enriched with butter and vanilla. After cooling, it's combined with a lightened labneh and whipped cream mixture, creating an irresistibly smooth and fluffy filling. Once assembled and chilled, the biscuits soften, melding with the creamy layers to create a truly delicious treat.
