Cuisine: American
Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 package Chips Ahoy cookies
- 2 cups whipped cream
- 1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles
- 1 cup chocolate syrup
Instructions
- Prepare a rectangular 9x13 inch baking dish by lightly spraying with non-stick cooking spray or lining with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a large mixing bowl, whip the cream until stiff peaks form. If using store-bought whipped cream, ensure it's well-chilled and slightly stabilized.
- Create the first layer of cookies by arranging Chips Ahoy cookies in a single, tight layer across the bottom of the prepared dish, covering the entire surface.
- Spread a generous layer of whipped cream evenly over the first cookie layer, ensuring complete coverage and smooth consistency.
- Drizzle chocolate syrup in a zigzag pattern across the whipped cream layer for added flavor and visual appeal.
- Sprinkle a portion of rainbow sprinkles over the chocolate syrup to add color and texture.
- Repeat the layering process: add another layer of Chips Ahoy cookies, followed by whipped cream, chocolate syrup, and sprinkles.
- Continue layering until you've used all cookies or reached the desired height, typically 2-3 layers.
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours, preferably overnight, to allow cookies to soften and flavors to meld.
- Before serving, garnish the top with additional rainbow sprinkles and a light drizzle of chocolate syrup.
- Cut into squares and serve chilled, enjoying the creamy, cookie-filled dessert.
Tips
- Chill Your Ingredients: For the best results, make sure your whipped cream is well-chilled before whipping. This helps achieve those perfect stiff peaks that give your icebox cake its rich texture.
- Layering is Key: Don’t be shy with the layers! Aim for at least 2-3 layers of cookies, whipped cream, and chocolate syrup to create a more decadent cake. This not only enhances the flavor but also makes for a stunning presentation.
- Customize Your Sprinkles: Feel free to get creative with the sprinkles! You can use themed sprinkles for holidays or special occasions to make your cake even more festive.
- Make Ahead: This icebox cake is best made a day in advance. Allowing it to sit overnight in the fridge helps the cookies soften and the flavors to meld beautifully.
- Serving Suggestions: For an extra touch, serve with fresh berries or a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side. It adds a refreshing contrast to the rich, creamy cake!
