Instructions:

1️⃣ Bake the Cake:

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.

In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, cocoa powder, and baking soda. Add egg, buttermilk, oil, and vanilla. Mix on medium speed for 2 minutes. Stir in boiling water (batter will be thin). Pour evenly into prepared pans.

Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

2️⃣ Make the Eggless Cookie Dough:

In a medium bowl, cream together butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in vanilla, then mix in flour and milk until blended. Fold in chocolate chips.

3️⃣ Prepare the Ice Cream Layer:

In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, brown sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Fold in Cool Whip and mini chocolate chips.

4️⃣ Assemble the Cake:

Place one chocolate cake layer on a serving plate. Spread half of the cookie dough evenly over the cake. Top with half of the ice cream mixture. Repeat with the second cake layer, remaining cookie dough, and ice cream.

5️⃣ Frost and Decorate:

Frost the entire cake with Cool Whip. Decorate with mini chocolate chips, drizzle with chocolate sauce if desired, and sprinkle M&M’s on top.

6️⃣ Freeze:

Chill in the freezer for at least 6 hours until firm.
