Cookie & Ice Cream Cake
Back in the days of studenthood, I once made a cookie and ice cream cake for my ex's birthday.

It was hardly a culinary masterpiece - two of those giant 14" cookies from Millies, with a whole tub of Ben and Jerry's cookie dough sandwiched in the middle (plus a few candles).

It was a better idea in theory than in practice. Within minutes of being out of the fridge it had melted into a soggy mess, and it was so ridiculously sweet that your gums receded on contact. Everyone politely ate a slice (or rather, a sloppy pile) and then it went back in the freezer.

The next day I was alone in the flat and rather stoned, and not wanting to waste the 25 quid I'd forked out, I ate the remaining 2/3rds with a big pot of coffee.

I spent the next day in bed, rolling around in agony and regret.

That's the worst kind of rolling!

Thats just reminded me of my last birthday cake
Mr Box made it, out of 33 Ferrero Rochers cemented into a morula by melted milk chocolate and white chocolate, and sprinkles. I think there was cream there too.

Lasted about 5 days, had to be refrigerated. My gums lasted about 1 day, trying to get on the outside of the rochercake.
