Icebox Cake

By srumbel

An Icebox cake is the perfect dessert to make up. Easy to put together, a lighter cake, and by lighter I mean, you won't feel stuffed after eating every last crumb and licking your plate (not that anyone in my house does that.)

Ingredients

• 3 cups heavy whipping cream
• 1/3 cup powdered sugar (more or less to taste)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 package thin chocolate wafer cookies
• Cool Whip Chocolate Frosting

Preparation

Step 1

Whip cream until soft peaks start to form. Add in Sugar and vanilla and continue to whip until stiff peaks form. Line a loaf pan with plastic wrap. Place about 1/2 cup of whipped cream in bottom of pan. Place a single layer of cookies on top of whipped cream trying to cover as much of the surface as possible. It's ok to break the cookies if you need to. Add a layer of whipped cream, then cookies. Continue to layer until you reach the top of pan, ending with whipped cream. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours. Remove from freezer and invert cake onto serving platter. Frost top and sides with Cool Whip Frosting. Return to freezer until 30 minutes prior to serving. For ease in slicing use a knife run under hot water and wipe knife after each slice.
