Easy Ice Cream Cake
No-bake Ice Cream Sandwich cake. Makes a great dessert for a hot summer evening!
Equipment
- Freezable container of the same size as base of your ice cream cake.
- Serving dish for presentation (optional)
Ingredients
- 8 to 12 Ice Cream Sandwiches flavors can vary
- 1 tub Cool Whip (defrosted – see notes below)
- Caramel Ice Cream Topping
- Chocolate Ice Cream Topping
- 1/4 bag Mini Rolos (optional)
- 1/2 cup Mini Milk Chocolate Chipa (optional)
- 1/2 cup Ice Cream Toppers (your favorite kinds)
Instructions
- Line a freezable container with foil or plastic wrap.
- Make the base of your ice cream cake by laying half the ice cream sandwiches out together in the lined container. You can do either a square (4 pieces) or rectangle (6 pieces).
- Add a filling layer of softened Cool Whip on the top of the base layer of sandwiches. Drizzle a bit of the caramel and chocolate topping over the Cool Whip layer.
- Put the next layer of ice cream sandwiches on top of the Cool Whip/sauce drizzle layer. Make sure you line them up evenly with the bottom layer now. Once they are frozen you will not be able to rearrange them.
- Top the second layer of ice cream sandwiches with another layer of Cool Whip and drizzled sauces, cover and put in the freezer for at least 2 to 3 hours to set. If you are not using a deep container with a lid that won't touch the top of the cake, then you can stick toothpicks into the top layer and drape foil over it to help it keep fresh in freezer.
- Once completely frozen again, move your cake from the freezer container to a pretty serving tray if you wish (optional) add a final layer of softened Cool Whip as icing, spreading on top and sides of the Ice Cream Cake.
- You can now add whatever toppings you have chosen to finish off the cake with. I used a drizzle of Caramel Ice Cream Topping, a drizzle of Chocolate Ice Cream Topping, Mini Rolos, mini milk chocolate chips and President's Choice Sugar Cone Ice Cream Topping for the cake pictured here.
Notes
- Soften/defrost Cool Whip according to the package directions and keep in the fridge while directly using it.
- Store in freezer until a few minutes before ready to serve.
