CHOCOLATE WAFER ICEBOX CAKE
This Chocolate Wafer Icebox Cake has a gorgeous presentation, and always a crowd pleaser!
Non-bakers…here is your cake! You don’t have to bake to serve a wonderful dessert! This Chocolate wafer icebox cake is super easy and nobody needs to know just how easy. The crisp wafer cookies are layered with sweet whip cream which in turn softens the cookies to perfection as they chill overnight. The only difficult thing about this recipe is waiting!
Last month my parents gave me an old recipe book that once belonged to my great grandma, although some of which is very difficult to read. This is one recipe I was able to at least understand most of, I just had to make a couple adjustments. I don’t remember ever having had an icebox cake as a child but I’m sure I did. It is rich and decadent and utterly delicious! It’s a great go to cake for entertaining, your guest will be quite impressed.
These chocolate wafers are usually found in the cookie section or in the baking section by the graham crackers crusts at some grocery stores. I have also found them at Walmart, there are a couple different brands but either will work perfectly.
Smear a couple tablespoons of the whipped cream on the plate to lay the cookie roll on. It helps hold them still so you can frost the top.
I usually use sliced almonds for the topping, but you can use whatever you have on hand.
CHOCOLATE WAFER ICEBOX CAKE
INGREDIENTS
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 (9 ounce) package chocolate wafer cookies
- ¼ cup chocolate chips
- Sliced almonds
INSTRUCTIONS
- Place the bowl and whisk of a stand mixer in the freezer for 10 minutes. If you are not using a stand mixer place the beaters of a hand held mixer in the freezer.
- In the chilled bowl beat the cream on high until soft peaks form. Add in the sugar and vanilla and continue mixing until stiff peaks form. DO NOT over beat
- Spread 3-4 tablespoon of whipped cream in a long strip on a platter. Spread 1 tablespoon whipped cream onto each wafer, and repeat until you have used all the cookies. Then lay the cookie roll on the strip of whipped cream on the platter. This helps so they don't slide. Frost with remaining whipped cream.
- In a small bowl add the chocolate chips and heat in the microwave on 30 second increments, stirring after each time until melted. Drizzle with chocolate and almonds, cover refrigerate 4-6 hours or overnight.
- Cut into diagonal slices so you get those beautiful chocolate stripes. Serves 6
- ***Note*** 4 cups of whipped topping (such as Cool Whip) can be substituted for whipped cream if desired. No need to add the sugar and vanilla.
