Description
Make a simple, layered ice cream cake using Oreos and store-bought ice cream. This no-bake recipe is perfect for birthdays and parties.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (14.3 ounce) package Oreo cookies
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
- 1.5 quarts softened vanilla ice cream
- 1.5 quarts softened chocolate ice cream
- 1 cup whipped topping, thawed
- 1/4 cup chocolate fudge sauce
- 1/2 cup crushed Oreo cookies for topping
Instructions
- Line an 8-inch springform pan with plastic wrap, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
- Place 24 whole Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until you have fine crumbs.
- In a bowl, mix the Oreo crumbs with the melted butter until fully combined.
- Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the prepared springform pan. Freeze for 15 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the freezer. Spread the softened vanilla ice cream evenly over the crust layer. Smooth the top with a spatula. Freeze for 1 hour, or until firm.
- Spread the softened chocolate ice cream evenly over the vanilla layer. Smooth the top. Freeze for another 1 hour, or until firm.
- In a small bowl, gently fold the thawed whipped topping into the chocolate fudge sauce until lightly swirled. Do not overmix.
- Spread the fudge swirl topping over the chocolate ice cream layer.
- Sprinkle the reserved crushed Oreo cookies over the top layer.
- Cover the pan loosely with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, until completely solid.
- To serve, use the plastic wrap overhang to lift the cake from the pan. Remove the springform ring. Let the cake sit at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing with a sharp, hot knife.
Notes
- You can substitute any two ice cream flavors you prefer for a custom cake.
- For a firmer base, use 30 whole Oreos and slightly less butter.
- If you do not have a springform pan, you can use a standard 9×5 inch loaf pan lined with parchment paper.
