My version (shown in the picture) used 4 cups of heavy whipping cream instead of 3 cups, which threw off the balance of the chocolate and cream. If I were to do it again, I would stick to 3 cups as below&#8230; VARIATIONS: Add flavorings (peppermint, orange, almond, etc.) to the whipped cream. Dust top with cocoa powder, crumbled oreos or crumbled left-over chocolate wafers.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A really complex looking chocolate cookie cake with layers of whipped cream.
