This Chocolate Chip Cookie Ice-Box Cake Will Be Your New Go-To No-Bake Dessert

Sometimes for dessert, you want something decadent and complex. Most of the time, though? We want something simple, easy, and delicious— like this ice-box cake! The fabulous no-bake dessert couldn’t be easier, and yet the finished product knocks more complicated desserts out of the park. Even better, you can use your favorite chocolate chip cookies – be they homemade or store-bought – to make it. When it’s layered with whipped cream, chocolate, and caramel, there’s really nothing better. Watch Tastemade show us how to put it together.

This Chocolate Chip Cookie Ice-Box Cake Will Be Your New Go-To No-Bake Dessert

INGREDIENTS
4 cups heavy cream, preferably organic
1/3 cup powdered sugar
1 tbsp. vanilla extract
48 thin and crispy chocolate chip cookies, such as Tate’s
1 bottle caramel sauce, such as Ghirardelli
1 bottle chocolate sauce, such as Ghirardelli
1 small dark chocolate bar, for shavings

DIRECTIONS
1. In a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment or with a hand mixer whip the cream, powdered sugar and vanilla to soft peaks. Set aside.

2. Using a medium sized cake plate or large, round, flat platter begin to build the cake. Smear a little bit of the whipped cream on the bottom so the cookies don’t slide around. Place 5-6 cookies on the bottom as the base.

3. The amount of cookies needed and used depends on the size of platter/cake plate you use. It also depends on how high you want to make it.

4. On top of the cookies spread a hefty amount of whipped cream over, leaving the outer edges of the cookies exposed. Drizzle with the chocolate and caramel sauce followed by some shavings of the chocolate bar using a vegetable peeler.

5. Layer more cookies on top of the whipped cream mixture and continue alternating and building it up until you use all of the cookies or it’s the height you want. It will start to resemble a cake.

6. The last layer will be whipped cream, a drizzle of chocolate and caramel sauce with the chocolate shavings. Place in the fridge for 2-3 hours to let it soften up slightly before slicing.

For years consumers have struggled to fit the large round fruit in their refrigerators. And then there was the problem of trying to cut the fruit when it kept rolling around. But 20 years ago a forward-thinking farmer on Japan's south-western   island   of Shikoku solved the problem. The farmer, from Zentsuji, in Kagawa prefecture, came up with the idea of making a cube-shaped watermelon which could easily be packed and stored. To make it happen, farmers grew the melons in glass boxes and the fruit then naturally assumed the same shape. Today the cuboid watermelons are.......................

Mixed Review: Crate & Barrel vs. Trader Joe's Cornbread

Mixed Review: Crate & Barrel vs. Trader Joe's Cornbread : " 'The Trader Joe's cornbread was some of the best cornbread I've tasted, from a mix or otherwise.' Ever wonder about a boxed mix you've seen in the store? Is it any good? Could it replace something you'd otherwise make from scratch? Welcome to Mixed Review , where the whole point is putting boxed mixes to the test! —The Mgmt. Two years ago, I did a roundup of standard supermarket cornbread mixes for this column and was generally unimpressed with all of them. They were gummy, thin, and cloyingly sweet. I called Jiffy, my top choice, 'solid, if not sensational' and recommended doctoring it up with add-ins like sun-dried tomatoes, poppy seeds, and pecans. This year, I thought it was time to revisit the cornbread basket by comparing two readily available specialty mixes: Crate & Barrel's Buttermilk Cornbread Mix ($8.95) and Trader Joe's Cornbread Mix ($2.69).
