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 on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, until golden brown and firm to the touch. Let it cool completely.
Assembling the Roll
- While the cookie dough cools, soften the vanilla ice cream in a large bowl.
- Stir in M&M's and mini chocolate chips.
- Carefully flip the cooled cookie dough onto wax paper and remove the parchment.
- Spread the ice cream mixture evenly over the cookie dough, leaving a small border.
- Roll the cookie dough tightly into a log using the wax paper for guidance.
Final Touches
- Place the rolled cake in the freezer for at least 2 hours.
- Whip together the cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla until stiff peaks form.
- Spread the whipped cream over the chilled cake roll and drizzle with chocolate syrup.
- Serve slices immediately, optionally garnishing with extra M&M's.
Notes
Ensure the ice cream is sufficiently softened to make spreading easier. Allow the cake roll to chill in the freezer long enough to set, at least two hours.
