Chocolate Icebox Cake with Caramel Drizzle
Get ready for the easiest cake of the summer Chocolate Icebox Cake with caramel and chocolate drizzle!! OMG.
Having a summer birthday while we were growing up was ROUGH! You missed out on all the inschool celebrations. You didnt get your locker decorated with wrapping paper and balloons. Your friends couldnt bring you flowers to school. And half of your friends were out of town for your party. Can you tell I havent really recovered? Yes these are for sure first world problems and honestly I couldnt care less about any of them now... but back in the day they seemed like a big deal. Luckily for me and now you guys one of my very best friends Emily was always there for my birthday. Her mom would make the most incredible Chocolate Icebox Cake for birthday celebrations and I would GO TO TOWN. Its light and airy and I am obsessed so Im bringing it back.
INGREDIENTS
3 cups heavy cream
3 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 packages Nabisco chocolate wafers 9 ounces
For Garnish
Store bought chocolate sauce
Cocoa Powder
INSTRUCTIONS
In a large stand mixer beat the heavy cream powdered sugar and vanilla on high until soft peaks form.
On a flat serving plate spread a thin layer of whipped cream to hold the bottom layer of cookies in place. Arrange 7 cookies side by side in a circle keeping 1 cookie in the center.
Spread about ⅔ cup whipped cream on top of the bottom cookie layer making a 7inch circle. Repeat with remaining cookies and cream making 11 or 12 layers of cookies and ending with a layer of cream there will be a few cookies left over you should just eat them. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
NOTES
These cookies are often found in the ice cream topping aisle rather than the cookie aisle. They are very thin wafers that will soften up beautifully when layered in this cake.
