1.5QuartsVanilla Ice Cream (or any flavor you prefer)
1Cupcrushed Oreo cookies (for layering)
1Cupwhipped cream or whipped topping
Chocolate sauce or hot fudge (optional for topping)
Instructions
Take 24 Oreo cookies and crush them into fine crumbs. You can use a food processor or place the cookies in a plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin. Mix the crushed cookies with melted butter until well combined.
Press the crushed Oreo mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan or a regular cake pan lined with parchment paper. Press it firmly to form an even crust. Place the pan in the freezer for about 15-20 minutes to set.
While the crust is setting, allow the ice cream to soften at room temperature for a few minutes until it's easy to spread but not completely melted.
Take the pan out of the freezer and spread half of the softened ice cream over the Oreo crust layer. Sprinkle a cup of crushed Oreo cookies evenly over the ice cream layer.
Spread the remaining ice cream on top of the crushed Oreo layer, creating an even layer.
Cover the pan with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and freeze the cake for at least 4 hours or until firm.
Before serving, take the cake out of the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to make it easier to slice.
Once ready to serve, carefully remove the cake from the pan. You can run a warm, damp cloth around the edges of a springform pan to help release the cake.
Top the Oreo ice cream cake with whipped cream or whipped topping. Optionally, drizzle chocolate sauce or hot fudge over the cake for an extra decadent touch.
Slice and serve the delicious Oreo ice cream cake immediately.
Notes
I made this for my nephew's 13th birthday and he loved it! There's nothing a teen boy loves more than icecream and Oreos so why not put those together?
