Cookies and Cream Ice Cream Cake



Ingredients

  • 1 9x4" Loaf Chocolate Pound Cake
  • 5 cups (or thereabouts) vanilla ice cream (I used little less than 1 1/2 quart)
  • 18 Oreo Cookies
  • Optional: 1 cup whipped cream

Instructions

  1. Line a loaf pan that is the same size as the pound cake being used with wax paper.
  2. Slice the pound cake length-wise into 3 equal layers.
  3. Place a layer of the cake in the bottom of the wax paper lined loaf pan.
  4. Spread about one third of the ice cream, slightly softened, over the cake.
  5. Sprinkle a layer of crushed Oreos/chocolate cream-filled cookies over the ice cream; gently press into the ice cream.
  6. Repeat sequence twice more until you've built 3 layers of each
  7. Gently press a layer of wax paper over ice cream cake to seal.
  8. Cover with plastic wrap and place in freezer until firm.
  9. Optional: When ready to serve, top with layer of whipped cream, and more crushed Oreos/chocolate cream-filled cookies.


Cut into slices and enjoy!



– Work quickly when putting the cake together. Ice cream has a tendency to melt.  So be prepared with all pieces and parts ready to assemble.

– Easily substitute fruit or other cookies for the Oreos or delete the cookies altogether. Another flavor of ice cream or cake could be used as well to create your own ice cream cake creation.
