CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE ICEBOX CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt and baking soda, then set aside.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter with the brown sugar and granulated sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Add 2 teaspoons of the vanilla extract and the eggs and blend until incorporated. Lower the speed to a stir, add the flour and mix until just combined. Then stir in 2 cups of the chocolate chips until incorporated.
• Drop the dough in teaspoon-size balls 2-inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake until the cookies are golden and crisp, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool the cookies for 5 minutes in the pan and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Whip the heavy cream, confectioners' sugar and the remaining 1 tablespoon vanilla until medium peaks form. Place about 1/4 cup of the whipped cream in a 9-inch circle on a cake plate and then cover the whipped cream with some cookies. Layer 1 cup whipped cream over the cookies and arrange another layer of cookies over the top. Repeat the layers three more times, finishing with a layer of cream. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chips over the top. Refrigerate the cake until the cookies soften, at least 4 hours or up to overnight.
• Slice into wedges to serve.

NUTELLA CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE ICEBOX CAKE

Steps:

• Whip the heavy cream until it starts to become thick (not fully whipped).
• Add the entire jar of nutella and the cocoa powder to the cream, and beat thoroughly. There should be no lumps, and the cream should be whipped. make sure not to overbeat or the cream will separate.
• Briefly dip each cookie in the half cup of milk, then put one layer of chocolate chip cookies on the bottom of an 8x8 inch square pan (fill in holes with pieces on each layer of cookies, doesn't have to be flat or attractive -- just needs to cover the layer. Since you're putting round cookies in a square pan, square off the edges by breaking the cookies in half to line the flat sides against the edge of the pan, then just fill in the rest).
• Layer 1/3 of the cream mixture on top.
• Repeat cookie and cream layers until you finish with the cream on top (there are three layers of cookies and three layers of cream).
• Refrigerate overnight or at least 12 hours (it needs time to soften!).
• This gets better over time, and can be stored for at least a week in the refrigerator - perfect for a large party, to get dessert out of the way far ahead of time!

• To make the cookies: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. Sift flour, baking soda, and salt into a bowl. With an electric mixer on medium-high speed, beat the butter and both sugars until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Reduce speed to low. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating until combined after each and scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Add flour mixture in 3 batches, then beat in vanilla. Fold in chocolate chips.
• Using a 1 1/4-inch ice-cream scoop (or a tablespoon), scoop dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. Bake until edges are golden brown and centers are set, 14 to 16 minutes. Transfer sheets to wire racks to cool 5 minutes. Transfer cookies to racks to cool completely.

Refrigerate, lightly draped with plastic wrap, overnight.
