No-bake mandarin cake
Description
The recipe won't take much time. For preparing the dessert, you can use only tangerine juice or substitute the sour cream with whipped cream. Be sure to wait for the tangerine layer to completely set before pouring the sour cream layer to prevent them from mixing. Decorate the dessert to your taste and serve it with hot drinks. Serve chilled.
