You can make this ultimate no-bake ice cream cake using simple layers of ice cream, crushed Oreos, and fudge. It is a crowd-pleasing frozen dessert perfect for birthdays or summer parties.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 quarts vanilla ice cream, softened slightly
  • 1.5 quarts chocolate ice cream, softened slightly
  • 1 package (14.3 ounces) Oreo cookies, crushed into fine crumbs
  • 1 cup hot fudge topping, slightly warmed
  • 1 tub (8 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • 1/4 cup crushed Oreo cookies for topping

Instructions

  1. Prepare a 9-inch springform pan by lining the bottom with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, mix the crushed Oreo crumbs with half of the slightly warmed hot fudge topping. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust. Freeze for 30 minutes.
  3. 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 at least 2 hours, or until firm.
  4. Once the vanilla layer is firm, spread the softened chocolate ice cream evenly over the vanilla layer. Freeze for another 2 hours, or until firm.
  5. Spread the remaining half of the hot fudge topping over the chocolate layer. Freeze for 30 minutes.
  6. Spread the thawed whipped topping over the fudge layer. Smooth the top.
  7. Cover the cake loosely with plastic wrap and freeze for a minimum of 12 hours, or preferably overnight, to set completely. This step is key for a perfect homemade ice cream cake.
  8. Before serving, carefully run a thin knife around the edge of the pan before releasing the springform side. Sprinkle the top with the reserved crushed Oreo cookies. Slice and serve this ultimate frozen dessert immediately.

Notes

  • You can substitute any two ice cream flavors you prefer for a custom ice cream cake.
  • For cleaner slices, dip your knife in hot water and wipe it dry between each cut.
  • This make-ahead frozen dessert tastes best when allowed to sit at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing.
