This easy no bake Chocolate Chip Cookie Icebox Cake is just what your summer parties need. Layers of cookies and sprinkle-filled cheesecake will not last long at all!
The other day our youngest son had two friends over to play. They rode bikes, played basketball, bounced on the trampoline, and did some video challenges. I was impressed that they stayed outside for so long.
A little while later I walked into the kitchen to find all sorts of food, condiments, and cups all over the counter. They were mixing up "fun"...aka gross...combos to try.
Things like salsa, ketchup, and Cool Whip were being mixed together in one cup. One spoonful though, and the rest was going down the drain. I'm glad they were having fun, but maybe next time they should use smaller cups to experiment with.
Now I don't know about you, but I prefer my Cool Whip mixed with things like cream cheese, sprinkles, and cookies. All those sprinkly layers just make me want to dive right into the pan of goodness!
This cake is so easy to put together, but everyone will think you got it from a bakery. Just smile and nod your head. They don't need to know how easy it is to make. Or go ahead and claim your fame to bakery style treats. LOL! I usually do!
I love using a springform pan to layer together the cookies and filling. This no bake cherry swiss rolls cake came out so well, that I couldn't wait to make another no bake version.
Adding sprinkles and chocolate chips just sort of happened. Every bite is definitely sprinkle-loaded. What can I say, I like sprinkles on my sprinkles!
Of course, if you bring this cake to share with friends, they may look around and ask who the birthday girl or boy is because it does kind of look like a party cake.
I brought this one to our Wednesday night church dinner, and I think everyone was afraid to cut into it at first because they thought someone was celebrating a birthday.
No birthday here. Just a chocolate chip cookie icebox cake loaded with sprinkles because because I felt like it. We don't need a special reason to party with no bake cake, right?

Recipe
Chocolate Chip Cookie Icebox Cake
Layers of cookies and cheesecake make this Chocolate Chip Cookie Icebox Cake a fun and festive treat for any party. Change out the sprinkles to match your party decor.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- ¼ cup packed brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 - 16 ounce container Cool Whip, thawed and divided
- ½ cup + 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips, divided
- ¼ cup + 3 tablespoons sprinkles, divided
- 1 Family Sized package Chips Ahoy cookies (about 48)
Instructions
- Beat the cream cheese until creamy. Add the sugar and extract and beat again until very smooth.
- Fold in 4 cups of Cool Whip gently with a rubber spatula. Stir in the the ½ cup chips and ¼ cup sprinkles gently.
- Spread 2 Tablespoons Cool Whip on the bottom of an 8 inch springform pan. Place 12 cookies side by side on the bottom of the pan. You may need to break and crumble a few to fill in the holes.
- Spread ⅓ of the cheesecake filling over the cookies with a spatula.
- Repeat the cookie and cheesecake layers two more times.
- Top everything with the remaining 12 cookies. Fill in the holes with broken cookie pieces, if needed.
- Spread 1 cup of Cool Whip over the top layer of cookies. Cover and refrigerate for 4-6 hours or overnight. (The cookies need time to soften into a cake-like layer.)
- Right before serving, unlatch the springform pan and remove the cake from the pan. You may need to use a knife to gently go around the edge of the pan before sliding it out.
- Pipe the remaining Cool Whip around the top edge of the cake. Mix together the remaining chocolate chips and sprinkles and place in the center of the cake. Add more sprinkles to the swirls, if desired.

As someone who spends her day with masses of teenagers, I agree. They're awesome, but they're smartphone addicts. It's actually impossible for some of them to tune out without anxiety. Kind of sad. But they're lovely people!
This is the most gorgeous icebox cake!
