It's a cake made from cookies! We loved the idea of a British chocolate biscuit cake so we made our version using Betty Crocker sugar cookies.

Ingredient

Cake

Frosting

2/3 cup dark chocolate chips (4 oz)
1/3 cup whipping cream
1 tablespoon butter

Instructions

Step 1
Heat oven to 350°F. Make and bake cookies as directed on package. Cool completely. Break 15 baked cookies into 1-inch pieces; set aside. (Save remaining cookies for another use.)

Step 2
Line a 6- or 8-inch round cake pan with foil. Spray with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 3
In medium bowl, place 1 1/3 cup chocolate chips; set aside. In 1-quart saucepan, heat 2/3 cup whipping cream and 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat, stirring until butter is melted and mixture comes to a boil. Pour cream mixture over chocolate and stir smooth.

Step 4
Add cookie pieces to chocolate mixture, gently fold until all pieces are coated. Spoon into the prepared cake pan. Gently press mixture into pan. Refrigerate cake for 3 hours or until firm.

Step 5
Remove cake from cake pan and turn upside down onto a serving plate. Remove foil. In small bowl, place remaining 2/3 cup chocolate chips. In 1-quart saucepan, heat remaining 1/3 cup whipping cream and 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat, stirring until butter is melted and mixture comes to a boil. Pour cream mixture over chocolate and stir smooth. Pour the melted chocolate over the cake; frost top and sides using a butter knife or offset spatula. If desired, decorate with melted milk chocolate.

Recipe Tips

For a flavor twist, try chocolate chip or peanut butter cookies. Or mix in 1/2 cup toasted hazelnuts.
