This is a recipe that we’ve been meaning to try for quite some time. It is a perfect dorm room recipe, because it only needs a mini-fridge and two ingredients: whipped cream and chocolate wafer cookies.        The cookies are layered with whipped cream to form a roll, which is then covered with more whipped cream. The log is placed in a fridge overnight, and when it comes out, it has become a delicious chocolate and vanilla cake. The wafer cookies absorb moisture from the whipped cream and puff up into thick, cake-like layers. This is seriously something that you have to see to believe.
Next time you are out buying snacks, you should grab a box of ‘Famous Chocolate Wafers’, some whipping cream, and try this recipe out for yourself. It will blow your mind and your taste buds!
Ingredients: 
10 wafer cookies
1 cup whipped cream (we made our own using 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream, 1 tbsp powdered sugar, and 1 tsp vanilla extract)

Directions:
1.     Spread about 1 tbsp whipped cream over each chocolate cookie
2.     Assemble cookies into a stack
3.     Turn stack on its side and completely cover with whipped cream
4.     Refrigerate overnight
5.     Cut diagonally into slices to show off chocolate layers

Will this recipe work with the whipped cream from Val?
Also, you are geniuses.

Haha, thanks so much.
We actually tried this with Val whipped cream, but it is less dense than homemade whipped cream so the cake didn't turn out the same way. Instead of multiple cake layers separated by whipped cream, all of the val whipped cream was absorbed by the wafers and it became one large roll of chocolate cake. All in all, it tasted good but just wasn't as pretty :)

This looks so simple and delicious to make. I'm currently waiting for a fridge repair service but love baking so much. I have this little ice box and now I know what to make while I wait. Thank you.
