Ice Cream Cake Recipe (+)

Directions

Place cookies in a mixing bowl and crush with a potato masher or the bottom of a heavy glass.
Pour melted butter or margarine over the cookies and toss with a fork to combine.
Press cookie mixture into the bottom of the springform pan.
Place the pan in the freezer for at least 15 minutes.
Allow the first quart of ice cream to thaw for 5-10 minutes or until it is soft enough to spread.
When ready, spread over the cookie mixture in the pan.
Place the pan back in the freezer.
Melt 8 squares of chocolate over medium heat in a small saucepan.
When melted, quickly pour it over the frozen ice cream in the pan. Spread it out evenly.
Place back into the freezer for one hour.
Allow the second quart of ice cream to thaw for 5-10 minutes.
Spread the ice cream over the chocolate layer and place back into the freezer for two hours.
Remove the cake from the freezer and run a knife around the inside edge of the springform pan and release the sides.
Place the cake on a serving platter.
Spread the non-dairy whipped topping over the top and sides of the cake.
Sprinkle with colored or chocolate sprinkles if desired.
Serve immediately or place the cake back into the freezer.
If freezing the cake, allow the non-dairy whipped topping to freeze, approximately one hour, then cover the entire cake with plastic wrap and place back into the freezer until ready to serve.
Remove the cake from the freezer at least 10 minutes before serving so that it is easier to cut.

*Note: This cake can be made with any flavor of ice cream. Use your favorite!
