Ingredients
Scale
1 (13.2 ounce) package of chocolate sandwich cookies (like Oreos)
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1.5 quarts vanilla ice cream, softened slightly
1.5 quarts chocolate ice cream, softened slightly
1 cup crushed chocolate sandwich cookies
1 cup fudge topping, warmed
2 cups whipped topping (store-bought or homemade)
1/4 cup sprinkles for decoration
Instructions
Prepare a 9-inch springform pan by lining the bottom with parchment paper.
Crush the first package of chocolate sandwich cookies finely in a food processor or by placing them in a sealed bag and crushing with a rolling pin. Mix the cookie crumbs with the melted butter until combined.
Press the buttered cookie mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the prepared springform pan. Place the pan in the freezer for 15 minutes to set.
Remove the pan from the freezer. Spread the softened vanilla ice cream evenly over the cookie crust. Return the pan to the freezer for at least 1 hour, or until the layer is firm.
Once the vanilla layer is firm, sprinkle the 1 cup of crushed cookies over the top. Drizzle half of the warmed fudge topping over the cookie layer. Freeze for another 30 minutes.
Spread the softened chocolate ice cream evenly over the cookie and fudge layer. Freeze for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, until completely firm.
When ready to serve, carefully remove the cake from the springform pan. Spread the whipped topping over the top and sides of the frozen cake.
Drizzle the remaining warm fudge topping over the whipped topping in a decorative pattern. Sprinkle with decorative sprinkles.
Slice and serve this homemade ice cream cake immediately.
Notes
You can substitute any two ice cream flavors you prefer for a custom layered ice cream dessert.
For cleaner slices, dip your knife in hot water and wipe it dry between each cut.
This make ahead cake is best assembled one day before you plan to serve it.
