Ingredients
For the Cake Roll
- 1 package chocolate chip cookie dough can be homemade or store-bought
- 2 cups softened vanilla ice cream creamy and aromatic
- 1 cup M&M's candy vibrant and crunchy
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips for added richness
- 1 cup whipped cream light and airy topping
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar to sweeten the whipped cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to enhance flavor
- 1/4 cup chocolate syrup for drizzling on top
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Roll out the chocolate chip cookie dough into a rectangle shape on the prepared surface.
- Bake according to the package instructions for about 10 to 12 minutes, until edges are golden brown and center is slightly firm.
- Let the cookie dough cool completely.
Ice Cream Mixture
- In a large bowl, soften the vanilla ice cream. Stir in the M&M's and mini chocolate chips.
- Flip the cooled cookie dough onto a piece of wax or parchment paper, peeling off the baking parchment.
- Spread the softened ice cream mixture evenly over the cookie dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Rolling and Freezing
- Starting from one short edge, carefully roll the cookie dough into a log, using the wax paper to assist.
- Freeze the rolled cake for at least 2 hours.
Whipped Cream Topping
- Before serving, mix heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
- Spread the whipped cream over the chilled cake roll and drizzle chocolate syrup on top.
Serving
- Slice and serve the cake roll, adding extra M&M's for decoration if desired.
Notes
Ensure cookie dough is completely cooled before spreading on ice cream to avoid melting. Use room temperature ingredients for easier mixing.
