Old Fashioned Chocolate Icebox Cake

I remember my mother making this cake for company in the 1960s. It´s so simple and so good! Make sure you chill it for at least four hours in the refrigerator so the cookies soften. 1 pkg. store bought plain chocolate wafer cookies (40 wafers) 2 cups heavy cream 1/2 cup powdered sugar 1/2 tsp. vanilla Beat together cream, powdered sugar and vanilla until stiff. Spread a spoonful on each cookie and stack them on a serving plate to make a long log. When all the cookies are frosted and stacked, cover the entire log with more whipped cream to cover thoroughly. Cover and chill in refrigerator for at least four hours. Slice on a diagonal to serve.
