hocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ice Cream Cake with Whipped Cream

In a large bowl, mix the softened vanilla ice cream with 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Spread the ice cream mixture over the frozen cookie dough layer in the springform pan.
Smooth the top with a spatula to create an even surface.
Freeze the cake for at least 4 hours or overnight, until the ice cream layer is completely firm.
3. Prepare the Whipped Cream:

In a chilled mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
Whip until stiff peaks form (the cream should hold its shape when lifted with the beaters).
4. Assemble and Serve:

Once the cake is fully frozen, remove it from the freezer.
Carefully spread the whipped cream over the top of the cake, creating a smooth or decorative finish.
Garnish with extra mini chocolate chips and drizzle with chocolate syrup if desired.
Carefully release and remove the sides of the springform pan.
Slice and serve immediately for a delicious treat!
