Ice Box Cake, a simple hot weather dessert.

Tweet

Have you ever had an Ice Box Cake, or Refrigerator cake? The first one I ever had was Cool Whip and Graham Crackers. The whip was flavored with a little strawberry jam. No baking is involved in this dessert. Choose a dish. I used a cake box with a lid. Get a box of your favorite graham crackers, and something cool and creamy. The one we have right now is regular grahams, chocolate fudge pudding with peanut butter stirred in, and frosted with real whipped cream. The hardest part is waiting at least twelve hours to eat it. I began with a skim coat of the pudding mixture then put six full rectangle graham crackers on top. I put half the remaining pudding on, then another layer of grahams. Another layer of pudding, more grahams, then frosted with I cup of whipping cream whipped with powdered sugar and vanilla. I have had cinnamon grahams with chocolate cool whip, and I have seen banana cream icebox cake with banana slices inside. Refrigerate your icebox cake for at least twelve hours before cutting. You will find it to be like thin layers of cake with flavored filling. Delish.
