Milk 'N' Cookies Icebox Cake Recipe

[YoungMhal]

I'm happy to share one of my favorite dessert recipes for those with a sweet tooth. It's called Milk 'N' Cookies Icebox Cake, a no-bake dessert that combines the comforting flavors of milk and cookies with a creamy twist. It’s layered, indulgent, and perfect for sharing!

Ingredients:​

For the Cake:​

• 2 cups (480 ml) cold milk (any kind, dairy or non-dairy)
• 1 package (15-20 cookies, about 300 g) chocolate chip cookies (store-bought or homemade)
• 2 cups (480 ml) heavy whipping cream
• 1/4 cup (30 g) powdered sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

For the Topping (optional):​

• Mini chocolate chips or crushed cookies
• Chocolate sauce or caramel drizzle
• Whipped cream dollops

Instructions:​

1. Prepare the Whipped Cream:​

1. In a large bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
2. Set aside in the refrigerator while you assemble the cake.

2. Dip the Cookies:​

1. Pour the cold milk into a shallow bowl.
2. Dip each cookie into the milk for 2-3 seconds (don’t oversoak), ensuring they’re slightly softened but not falling apart.

3. Assemble the Layers:​

1. In a rectangular or round dish (e.g., 9x9 inch or similar size), spread a thin layer of whipped cream on the bottom to prevent sticking.
2. Arrange a single layer of milk-dipped cookies over the whipped cream, filling gaps by breaking cookies if needed.
3. Spread a generous layer of whipped cream over the cookies.
4. Repeat the layers—cookies, then whipped cream—until all cookies are used, finishing with a whipped cream layer on top.

4. Chill to Set:​

1. Cover the dish with plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or overnight. This allows the cookies to soften and meld with the cream.

5. Decorate and Serve:​

1. Just before serving, sprinkle the top with mini chocolate chips, crushed cookies, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce or caramel.
2. Slice into squares or wedges and serve chilled.

Tips:​

• Cookie Options: Use any cookies you like—Oreos, peanut butter cookies, or even gingersnaps for a twist.
• Flavor Variations: Add a layer of Nutella, peanut butter, or caramel between the cookies for extra flavor.
• Make Ahead: This dessert tastes even better the next day as the cookies fully soften and flavors meld.

Enjoy this playful and nostalgic treat that’s perfect for kids and adults alike!
