CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

This is the ultimate chocolate chip cookie cake with cream cheese frosting. It is three layers of deep dish chocolate chip cookies that have been slathered with cream cheese frosting between the layers.  This is a cake that will satisfy any cookie monster.

This is a soaring tower of giant, chewy, deep dish chocolate chip cookies. But it doesn’t stop there. We filled the cookie cake layers with a creamy, light, and fluffy cream cheese frosting then drizzled with a rich chocolate sauce.

It’s madness! And I mean that in a good way. If you’re mad about chocolate chip cookies, this is the cake for you!
