Snuggie (Ginger Snap Ice Box Cake)

December hits and suddenly I go from pumpkin spice everything to gingerbread everything. I am not sure what it is about gingerbread that makes we want to curl up by the fire, drink tea, and watch It's a Wonderful Life on TV, but trust me it does. This is a festive, yummy, and no-bake holiday recipe that will make you feel warm and cozy.
