Ingredients
Scale
2 cups of heavy whipping cream
1 cup of powdered sugar
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
2 cups of chocolate wafer cookies
1/2 cup of cocoa powder
Optional toppings: fresh berries, chocolate shavings, or crushed nuts
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, pour in the heavy whipping cream, add the powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer, whip on medium-high speed until soft peaks form.
In a separate bowl, sift the cocoa powder to ensure no lumps. Then, fold a couple of tablespoons of the whipped cream into the cocoa powder to create a chocolate base.
Grab a rectangular or square dish. Start with a layer of your whipped cream mixture at the bottom, spreading it out gently. Dip each chocolate wafer cookie briefly in cold water before laying them over the whipped cream. Repeat with another layer of cream, more cookies, until you reach the top.
Top your final layer with the remaining whipped cream mixture. Sprinkle some cocoa powder on top or crush up optional toppings like fresh berries.
Cover your Icebox Cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
