Ingredients
Scale
1 (13.2 ounce) package Oreo cookies, divided
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/2 gallon vanilla ice cream, softened
1/2 gallon chocolate ice cream, softened
1 cup hot fudge topping, slightly warmed
1 cup heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Extra crushed Oreos for topping
Instructions
Line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper.
Place 18 Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until you have fine crumbs. Add the melted butter and pulse until combined. Press this mixture firmly 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. Freeze for 30 minutes until firm.
While the vanilla layer freezes, crush the remaining Oreo cookies coarsely.
Spread the softened chocolate ice cream over the vanilla layer. Drizzle half of the warm hot fudge over the chocolate layer. Sprinkle half of the crushed Oreos over the fudge. Freeze for 1 hour.
Prepare the topping: In a medium bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
Spread the whipped cream topping over the frozen layers. Drizzle the remaining hot fudge over the whipped cream and sprinkle with the remaining crushed Oreos.
Cover the pan loosely with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving.
When ready to serve, run a thin knife dipped in hot water around the edge of the cake before releasing the springform side. Slice and serve immediately.
Notes
You can substitute any two ice cream flavors you prefer for a custom homemade ice cream cake.
For a cleaner slice, let the cake sit at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes before cutting.
This is a great make ahead frozen cake option for celebrations.
