According to your link, paperwork and clearance are not required for the OP's intended use:

"a Shipper's Declaration of Dangerous Goods is not required when dry ice is used to cool a non-dangerous good"

Of course, even if no paperwork is required, most airlines still have a cap on the amount of dry ice you can check.
