This No Bake Vanilla Ice Box Cake is kid-friendly, make ahead, freezer friendly and super easy. What's not to love?
There are many variation of this Ice Box Cake. You can use Graham wafers or chocolate or vanilla wafers. You can flavour the filling and icing with chocolate or lemon.
This one uses Graham wafers and vanilla cream. I saw a container of Oh Henry bar tidbits (at No Frills) that I thought would be the perfect complement. And it turns out they were! Lovely little hits of chocolate, peanuts and peanut butter.
Chef's Tips for No Bake Vanilla Ice Box Cake
- You can substitute any of your favourite chocolate bars, crumbled or rough chopped for the Oh Henry tidbits.
- You can substitute lemon curd for the Devon cream and replace the chocolate with fruit. Raspberries or blueberries would be nice.
- The recipe as written makes one 9" X 5" loaf pan size. I was looking at leftover graham wafers, leftover devon cream, leftover whipping cream- so you might want to consider just doubling the recipe and freeze one.

Summer dessert can't get any easier with graham crackers, devon cream, whipped cream and your favourite chocolate bar.
