My sister’s mother-in-law, Robin, makes this amazing dessert and I keep telling Stacey to get the recipe from her. Well, I think I have found something that comes pretty close….this Chocolate-Mint Icebox Cake from good ole’ Martha! This dessert is amazing and looks so simple to make! Easy + No Bake = perfect dessert

I don’t think Robin makes her’s with mint, but I think that sounds like a perfect addition…especially for the summer. I can’t wait to try this out!
Ingredients
Serves 8
- 1 3/4 cups heavy cream, chilled
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon mint extract
- 1 package (9 ounces) chocolate wafers
- 1 cup miniature chocolate chips
Directions
- Make the mint cream: With an electric mixer, beat heavy cream, sugar, and mint extract until stiff peaks form.
- Line a serving platter with two sheets of wax paper side by side. Assemble the cake: Spread each wafer with about 1/2 tablespoon mint cream, forming stacks. Lay stacks horizontally along seam of paper, pressing gently to form a log. With small spatula or knife, cover log with remaining mint cream. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or up to 2 days.
- To serve, gently remove wax paper from underneath cake (holding cake in place with a metal spatula, if necessary), and sprinkle with chocolate chips. Slice cake diagonally with a serrated knife.
Dang! That looks like the one! Mint would probably be soooo good. That cake is my favorite. You know Lexie, now you have to make this for me…

Wow this should be difficult right? It sounds so easy and looks amazing
Yum! Awesome looking ice cream cake!
Chocolate and mint. One of my all time favorite flavor combos.
