No-Bake Mocha Icebox Cake

This Mocha Icebox Cake features layers of rich mocha cream made with whipped cream and coffee, sandwiched between chocolate wafer cookies. The recipe takes about 20 minutes to prepare and requires chilling time, serving approximately 8 people.

Ingredients

2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon instant coffee granules
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 package (9 ounces) chocolate wafer cookies
Cocoa powder for dusting (optional)
Chocolate shavings for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Whip the Cream: In a large bowl, beat the heavy cream, powdered sugar, instant coffee granules, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
Layer the Cake: Spread a thin layer of the mocha cream on the bottom of a 9×13-inch dish. Place a layer of chocolate wafer cookies on top, then spread more mocha cream over the cookies. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of cream on top.
Chill: Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the cookies to soften and the flavors to develop.
Serve: Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder and garnish with chocolate shavings if desired. Slice and enjoy!
