Fudge Layered Ice Cream Cake
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 package of chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed
- 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup of granulated sugar
- 1.5 quarts of vanilla ice cream, softened
- 1 cup of hot fudge sauce
- 1 cup of heavy cream
- 1/4 cup of powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup of chocolate chips
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mix together the crushed chocolate cookies, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9x13 inch pan to form the crust.
- Spread the softened vanilla ice cream over the cookie crust in an even layer. Place the pan in the freezer and freeze for at least 2 hours, or until the ice cream is firm.
- Once the ice cream layer is firm, pour the hot fudge sauce over the ice cream and spread it evenly. Return the pan to the freezer and freeze for another 2 hours.
- In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the fudge layer.
- Sprinkle the chocolate chips over the whipped cream layer. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 2 hours, or until the cake is completely frozen.
- Before serving, let the cake sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to make it easier to slice. Enjoy!
