Step 1
To serve, slice diagonally to create striped pieces.
Step 2
Beat cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer. Gradually add confectioners' sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form.
Step 3
Spread a generous teaspoon of whipped cream onto each cookie. Press cookies together to make 3-inch stacks.
Step 4

Step 5
Frost cookie log with remaining whipped cream and sprinkle with grated chocolate. Cover tightly and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
