Strawberry Cheesecake Ice Cream Bars with Chocolate Drizzle
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 quart strawberry ice cream, softened
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mix together 1 1/2 cups of graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup of melted unsalted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish to form the crust.
- Spread the softened 1 quart of strawberry ice cream over the crust in an even layer. Place in the freezer to set for 1 hour.
- In a large bowl, beat the softened 8 oz cream cheese, 1/2 cup powdered sugar, and 1 tsp vanilla extract until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip the 1/2 cup of heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Spread this cheesecake layer over the set ice cream layer. Return to the freezer and freeze for at least 3 hours, or until firm.
- Once the bars are frozen, cut them into 12 even bars.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the 1 cup of semisweet chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the bars.
- Serve immediately or store in the freezer until ready to enjoy.
