Directions
- In a large bowl, beat cream, sugar, vanilla bean seeds, and vanilla extract with an electric mixer on high speed until soft peaks form.
- On a flat serving plate, spread a thin anchoring layer of whipped cream. Arrange 7 cookies in a circle on top of the whipped cream, keeping 1 cookie in the center.
- Spread with 1/2 cup whipped cream, making a cup of approximately 7” leaving a sliver of the cookie exposed.
- Repeat with remaining cookies and cream, until you have 11 alternating layers of cookies and cream, ending with a layer of cream. There will be a few cookies left over. (You can crumble them and use for a garnish as well).
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours - overnight is preferred.
- To serve, top with chocolate curls or cookie crumbs and slice and serve as needed.
