(Because it’s too friggen hot).
Guys. It’s hot and I’m feeling so very lazy.
How lazy you ask?
Well, if it requires more energy than floating in the pool does, I’m not doing it.
So here is a recipe in which I use only premade ingredients, pile then on top of each other, and then go back in the pool.
Oh, and it’s insanely delicious so reserve all your judgement and go back to worshiping my genius.
Here is what you need:
-1/2 Gallon coffee ice cream (softened, by leaving it out on the counter for a bit… but not fully melted because you forgot about it, because your brain has turned to mush, since you’re super lazy or whatever…).
-24 Thin and crispy store bought (GASP!) chocolate chip cookies.
-1 Container of (GASP!) Cool Whip.
-1 Tbsp. Autocrat coffee syrup (which is a New England thing, so if you can’t find it, google that shit and order it, because it’s stupid good, and “coffee milk” is where it’s at kids!).
-10 “fun sized” Heath bars (there is nothing fun about tiny chocolate, that verbiage is highly inaccurate).
Or 2 whole Heath bars (chopped into pieces, but don’t buy the pre-chopped ones because they are stupid).
-1 Brownie (that you had leftover from a previous dinner party and decided to crush up and add to the recipe, because more is more kids!).
NOTE: This is obviously optional but hey! Why waste.
OK! Let’s dump shit into a pan and turn it into magic, shall we?
Line a cake pan (preferably a spring-form pan, because it’s SO much easier, and we’re living for easy right now), with plastic wrap.
Place 12 cookies in a single layer at the bottom of the lined pan, breaking them into pieces to fill any holes (heh heh).
Spread half the coffee ice cream on top of the cookies, using an offset spatula or spoon to smooth it out.
NOTE: We’re barely working here team, to let’s at least try to make this nice and even, mmmkay?
Add the remaining 12 cookies, filling those holes (heh heh), just as you did before.
Add the crushed random brownie.
Top with the remaining coffee ice cream and spread until smooth.
Sprinkle on the crushed Heath bars (that you chopped yourself because we had to make at least a tiny effort with this one).
Mix half a container of Cool Whip (and no. I’m not even a tiny bit ashamed, remember LAZYYYYYYY), with the 1 Tbsp. of Autocrat, and scoop into a piping bag (or zip lock bag with the corner cut off), and decorate as you see fit (Remembering once again that people eat with their eyes, and let’s at least make it look like we cared here).
Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until firm (insert some sort of “firm” joke here, I’m too lazy to think of one).
NOTE: allow to sit at room temperature before serving, to make it easier to slice.
You COULD share this cake with your best pals, and make them all impressed…. Or you could secretly eat it alone with a spoon, straight out of the pan, while no one is looking.
…you decide.
Enjoy!
