Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 300°F. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa, and baking soda. Mix in the egg, buttermilk, vegetable oil, and vanilla. Finally, add the boiling water and beat until smooth. Divide batter between two 8-inch pans and bake for 25-30 minutes. Let cakes cool and level if necessary.

- In another bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add the milk and vanilla, then fold in the Cool Whip and mini chocolate chips. Mix in 3/4 of the cookie dough balls.
- Line an 8-inch springform pan with parchment paper. Place the first cake layer at the bottom, top with half of the ice cream mixture, then add the second cake layer and the rest of the ice cream mixture. Freeze for 6-8 hours.
- Remove cake from pan, frost with Cool Whip, and garnish with remaining cookie dough, chocolate chips, and chocolate sauce if desired.
- Slice and serve cold. Enjoy!
