Our home economists take four ingredients and turn them into an impressive, no-bake cake. Do-ahead desserts don't get any better! Ingredients:
3 cups heavy whipping cream |
3 tablespoons sugar |
1 teaspoon peppermint extract |
2 packages (9 ounces each) chocolate wafers |
edible flowers of your choice, chocolate curls and crushed candy canes, optional |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, beat the cream, sugar and extract on high until stiff peaks form. Cut a small hole in the corner of a pastry or plastic bag. Fill with whipped cream.
2. On a serving plate, arrange seven cookies in a circle, using one cookie in the center. Pipe 2/3 cup whipped cream over cookies. Repeat layers nine times. Refrigerate overnight.
3. Garnish with flowers, chocolate curls and crushed candy if desired. Yield: 8 servings.
