Icebox_cake

"The one dessert I have great memories of us [my mom and I] making together is the chocolate wafer icebox cake—the same one that we serve at the bakery today. Apparently, while the rest of the country was slaving away shaping Nabisco chocolate wafers into the log that was pictured on the side of the box, we were using chocolate snap cookies to make a really simple yet really delicious round icebox cake." — Allysa Torey via Oprah.com

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups heavy cream
  • 3 Tablespoons sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 2 (9-ounce) packages chocolate wafer cookies
  • Unsweetened cocoa powder

Recipe - adapted from The Magnolia Bakery Cookbook (Simon & Schuster) - at Oprah.com
