Nutter Butter Nutella Icebox Cake

Chocolate Peanut Butter Icebox Cake | No Bake Cake

Do you guys know the tight pants song from Jimmy Fallon?

{Gord and I are a little obsessed with that man. I actually gave Gordon his book for Father’s Day!}

Well in this house, we sing fat pants.

“Everybody’s talkin’ ’bout my fat pants. I got my fat pants. I got my fat pants on!”

We sing this for a number of reasons, but mainly because I make ridiculous desserts like this.

It all started with this Nutter Butter Nutella Pie. {Just, YES.}

All roads paved with nutter butters and nutella are roads I want to travel. AmIright?

So that was YEARS ago that I posted it {all you newbies will definitely want to click through to make THAT gem} but different variations of that recipe have always lingered around in my brain, ready to pop out at any moment.

Well, I’m not sure whether it was the 104 temperatures we’re supposed to get this week {kill me now} or the fact that I haven’t purchased nutter butters SINCE I made that pie back in 2011 but either way, I knew I had to use this brilliant cookie-nutella combination in an equally easy yet devilish way IMMEDIATELY. {–>Can’t explain. I don’t even understand myself, you guys.}

So this is what popped out of my brain and onto your screens this very day.

You’re welcome, America.

Nutter Butter Nutella Icebox Cake

While it is the very definition of devilish, it is also cold, sweet, refreshing and is the perfect chocolate/peanut butter combination. The softened cookie texture with the creamy nutella concoction makes for one heck of a dessert. Add a little whipped cream and this dessert will move into OMG status.

I knew this dessert was going to be trouble, so I took my pictures, my few bites*, portioned it all out and sent it off to other homes because THERE IS NO ROOM AT THE INN**.

Nutter Butter Nutella Icebox Cake

Main Ingredients Needed

  • Cream cheese– softened, for creamy texture.
  • Granulated sugar- to sweeten.
  • Vanilla- for flavor.
  • Container of Nutella– 13 oz size. For chocolate hazelnut flavor!
  • Heavy cream- to added volume and thickness to the batter.
  • Nutter Butters + Cold Milk- serves as our crust.

Topping:

  • Whipped cream
  • Chocolate sauce
  • Chopped nutter butters

How To Make Chocolate Peanut Butter Icebox Cake | Directions

Step 1: Prep

Line a 9×9 glass dish with plastic wrap and set aside.

Step 2: Combine Ingredients to Make Nutella Mixture

In a large bowl, mix cream cheese with sugar and vanilla until smooth. Stir in Nutella, scrape sides and mix again. Add in heavy cream and whip 2 minutes or until very thick.

Step 3: Assemble Cake + Refrigerate Overnight

Dip Nutter Butters in milk and line the bottom with cookies. Top with half the nutella mixture and repeat the layers of cookies and cream one more time. Top with extra chopped nutter butters and refrigerate covered 12 hours or overnight.

Step 4: Serve

To serve, loosen edges of cake with butter knife and remove using the extra plastic wrap sides around the edges. Cut into pieces and top with cream and chocolate sauce.

Storing Chocolate Peanut Butter Icebox Cake

Store leftover icebox cake in the fridge for up to 2 days. After a couple days everything begins to have a rubbery texture, which is definitely not ideal.

    Are you are aware of Gulliver’s Gate, near Times Square? It’s a fairly new attraction based on a train layout going through many countries. You might want to check their website to see if it’s appropriate for your family.

    This looks super decadent (& guilty lol) but I’ll put it in my recipe box just in case I finally lose that 3 pounds!
    I love your site and would like to invite you to become a recipe partner with Chicory. Are you interested?
