How to Make Chocolate Refrigerator Roll

In a medium bowl, gently stir 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract into 2 cups of whipped cream.
Spread 1/2 tablespoon of the whipped cream mixture onto each chocolate wafer.
Carefully stack the wafers on top of each other on a serving platter, forming a 14-inch log. Stand the log on its edge.
Frost the entire log with the remaining whipped cream mixture, ensuring it's evenly coated.
Cover the log tightly with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
Before serving, thaw the Chocolate Refrigerator Roll in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow it to soften.
Garnish with chocolate curls or shavings before slicing and serving.
To serve, slice the roll at a 45-degree angle for elegant, individual portions.
