SuzyQ Dessert Stack Recipe is an ice cream treat that starts with a pre-made chocolate cake then layered with ice cream and chocolate.
Hostess SuzyQ snack cakes are the boys’ favorite snack cakes. I have to ration them or make them keep up with how many they’ve each eaten out of a box or they’ll ‘race’ to eat more than the other one. (That’s brothers for you!)
This dessert is great for a kids’ activity. I recently had a few had several children over and needed crafts to pass the time. I had fun making this Strawberry Shortcake Twinkie and wanted to do something similar. Layering ice cream, Cool Whip, and chocolate sauce were entertaining to them. However, I think all the kids would tell you the best part was eating the dessert.
As well, this is a great way to get the kids in the kitchen and to start to teach them how to cook. You’ve got to start with something fun and easy. This may seem like a ‘silly’ recipe to you, but for kids, it is a great way to start getting them in the kitchen. Remember, it takes baby steps to learn to cook.
SuzyQ DESSERT STACK RECIPE
This recipe is very simple and has just three ingredients
- SuzyQ snack cake
- Cool whip
- Chocolate Sauce
- Vanilla ice cream
- (I wish I had put strawberries, bananas, or another fruit on it.)
- Sprinkles optional, but they add great color
The method is so easy. Additionally, you can make it in a large 9×13-inch pan or you can make it in individual servings. Kids LOVE individual servings.

Why do these people think you want to read their life history to get to the recipe.?
Paula says
I know you’re not referring to me and clearly you didn’t read the post because I didn’t tell my life story or anything personal in the narrative.
Mehndi says
OMG Paula this looks fantastic! I want a piece! Is that whipped cream you’ve used to layer and top with? Photos are amazing.
