Ingredients
1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 (9 ounce) package chocolate wafer cookies
¼ cup grated chocolate
Directions
Beat cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer. Gradually add confectioners’ sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form.
Spread a generous teaspoon of whipped cream onto each cookie. Press cookies together to make 3-inch stacks.
Spread whipped cream in a 1-inch-wide line down the center of a serving platter. Turn cookie stacks sideways and join into a log; place in the whipped cream to secure.
Frost cookie log with remaining whipped cream and sprinkle with grated chocolate. Cover tightly and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
To serve, slice diagonally to create striped pieces.
