Ingredients
Prep your Cookie and Ice Cream
For the Chocolate Cake
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup sugar
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup milk
- ¼ cup butter
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
- 1 egg
Step by Step
For the Cookie Layer
- Bake your Chocolate Chip Cookie in a 9 inch round cake pan for 30 minutes. The center will still be soft. I baked the base and had enough batter for a dozen large cookies.
For the Ice Cream Layer
- When your ice cream is ready, transfer it into a 9 inch round cake pan, press flat, cover with plastic wrap and place in the freezer.
For the Cake
- Preheat oven to 350 and prepare a 9" round cake pan.
- Place the dry ingredients into your mixing bowl and stir with a fork to mix. Add in the milk, butter and vanilla and beat on low until combined. Add the egg and beat for 2 minutes until fully incorporated.
- Bake for 30 to 35 minutes and then cool for 10 in the pan. Invert and cool on a rack. Wrap in plastic and store in the fridge.
- Place the Cookie layer on a cake plate and top with the ice cream. Add some chocolate syrup if desired. Top with the chocolate cake and add powdered sugar and more syrup. Serve immediately.
- I liked the ice cream to be slightly melted to soften the cookie layer. Enjoy!
