Description

A delicious and easy-to-make icebox cake featuring layers of Ritz crackers, creamy filling, and salted caramel.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 sleeves Ritz crackers
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 package cream cheese, softened (8 oz)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup salted caramel sauce for drizzling
  • Sea salt, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to combine the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Add the vanilla extract and mix until fully incorporated.
  2. In another bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.
  3. Start by laying down a single layer of Ritz crackers at the bottom of a rectangular dish. Spread a layer of the cream filling over the crackers, then drizzle some salted caramel sauce on top.
  4. Continue layering Ritz crackers, cream filling, and caramel sauce until you’ve used all the ingredients. The final layer should be the cream filling.
  5. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to meld and the cake to set.
  6. Before serving, garnish with a sprinkle of sea salt for an extra flavor kick. Slice and serve chilled.

Notes

  • For best results, refrigerate overnight.
  • Feel free to adjust the amount of salted caramel sauce to your taste.
  • This cake can be made a day in advance for convenience.
