I love a dessert that looks like I spent hours on it... when really, I just layered a few simple things and let the fridge do the work. That’s what this Berry Icebox Cake is all about.

I came up with these S’mores Ice Cream Sandwiches on a summer night when we ran out of marshmallows for a firepit session.
