Try this super easy, cool and refreshing whipped cream torte for those hot summer days.

ICE BOX WHIPPED CREAM TORTE

1 box Nabisco chocolate round wafer cookies

2 pints heavy whipping cream

2 ½ tablespoons sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla

Whip the cream together with sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form. On cake stand, spread a small amount of the whipped cream for your base. Then take each cookie and make stacks, spreading the whipped cream on top and bottom of each cookie, approximately 6-8 cookies high. Generously frost the entire torte with whipped cream, so that all of the wafer cookies are covered. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate no less than 24 hours. Decorate with shaved chocolate or cocoa powder.
