Nicola Sturgeon will meet Theresa May in London later on Wednesday after accusing her of "kicking the can" over Brexit .
The Prime Minister made a statement on Tuesday evening saying she would seek a further extension of Article 50 from the EU.
May also said she would meet Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn in a bid to break the impasse in the House of Commons.
However, the First Minister has also warned Corbyn to be "very, very wary" of reaching agreement with May.
She went on to say: "We all have to be cautious that we are not falling into a trap.
"Whatever Theresa May might agree with others right now, by her own admission she's not going to be prime minister so she can't deliver on anything"
It followed a Cabinet session that lasted more than seven hours.
The UK is scheduled to depart the EU on April 12.
On Twitter, Sturgeon suggested May was delaying making a decision on Brexit to avoid her Cabinet collapsing.
"This does seem very much like PM kicking the can and, yet again, delaying making any decision that could break her Cabinet," the First Minister tweeted.
"What is missing is an answer from her to the question that many MPs faced up to last night - what is the compromise she is willing to make?
"The sensible way forward - and I think the one PM would take if this was a serious attempt to build consensus - is agree to fight (an) election, seek longer delay and allow option of public vote on what Commons agrees."
The Prime Minister has failed to gather enough support to get her Brexit deal through Parliament, with MPs having voted it down three times.
On the most recent occasion last week, MPs were asked only to vote on the Prime Minister's Withdrawal Agreement after Commons Speaker John Bercow told her the same motion must not be asked repeatedly without any changes being made.
A series of indicative votes, held after MPs decided to take control of the Brexit process, have also so far failed to find consensus after none of the proposals gained enough support to pass.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
