Steps:
- Cakes: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch round cake pan (2 inches deep); line with parchment. Butter parchment, then dust with cocoa, tapping out excess. Repeat process with a 15 1/2-by-10 1/2-inch jelly-roll pan. In the bowl of a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together cocoa, flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt on low speed until just combined. Add eggs, buttermilk, oil, and vanilla; beat to combine. Add water; increase speed to medium and beat until smooth, about 3 minutes.
- Transfer 1 cup batter to prepared cake pan and remaining batter to prepared jelly-roll pan, spreading both batters evenly with an offset spatula. Bake until set and a tester inserted into centers comes out clean, 12 to 14 minutes. Transfer pans to wire racks and let cool 15 minutes. Invert cakes from pans; reinvert onto racks and let cool completely.
- White Chocolate Ganache: Place chocolate in a medium bowl. Heat cream in a small saucepan over medium; pour over chocolate. Let stand 3 minutes. Gently stir with a spatula until fully incorporated. Cover and refrigerate until set but still spreadable, about 1 hour. If ganache is too firm, let stand at room temperature or beat with a mixer until softened.
- Trim edges of rectangular cake. Top with ganache; spread evenly to edges. Using a ruler, cut cake evenly into quarters; stack on top of one another, gently pressing down to adhere layers. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes. Using a ruler, cut cake lengthwise into 1-inch-wide strips, then cut each strip in half (they should be about 3 1/2 to 4 inches tall).
- Transfer 9-inch cake to a 10-inch springform pan. Place cake strips around perimeter of cake, flush with edge of pan.
- Spread ice cream over cake in pan; cover and freeze overnight. Just before serving, remove cake from freezer; unlatch pan, remove cake, and top with whipped cream and chocolate shavings.

Steps:
- In small saucepan, place 1/2 cup whipping cream, semisweet and unsweetened chocolate chunks. Heat over medium low heat until chocolate melts, stirring frequently. Remove from heat; set aside. (I have done this in the microwave on 70% power stirring after a minute and then every 20-30 seconds thereafter.).
- In medium saucepan over medium heat, heat half and half until very hot but not boiling, stirring often. Remove from heat; set aside. (I've also done this in the microwave for about a minute.).
- In small bowl, combine sugar and cocoa powder; set aside. Place egg yolks in mixer bowl and beat; gradually add sugar mixture and mix about 30 seconds or until well blended and slightly thickened. Very gradually add chocolate mixture and half and half; mix until well blended.
- Return half and half mixture to medium saucepan; stirring constantly, cook over medium heat until small bubbles form around edge and mixture is steamy. Do not boil. Transfer half and half mixture into large bowl; stir in remaining 1-1/2 cups whipping cream, vanilla, and salt. Cover and chill thoroughly, at least 8 hours (I chill mine in the freezer for 2 hours, stirring after 1st hour and then every 15 minutes until 2 hours.).
- Put the mixture into your ice cream maker and let it go to work. :) During the last 1-2 minutes of freeze time, add in the milk chocolate. Immediately transfer ice cream into serving dishes or freeze in airtight container. Enjoy!

People are very impressed when they eat this, because the cookies get soft and meld together with the cream. They think that somehow you made really thin strips of chocolate cake, and they can never figure out how you got them to stand up. Best if you make it the day before.
