Ice Cream Cake with Oreo Crust

A simple, no-bake Ice Cream Cake with rich chocolate and bright strawberry flavors, topped with a crunchy Oreo crust.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 Oreo cookies, crushed
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1.5 quarts chocolate ice cream, softened
  • 1 cup homemade or store-bought hot fudge, divided
  • 1.5 quarts strawberry ice cream, softened
  • 2 cups heavy cream, cold
  • 1/3 cup confectioners’ sugar
  • 1.5 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • Sprinkles (optional for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Make the Oreo crust by mixing the crushed Oreos with the melted butter and setting aside.
  2. Line a 9×3-inch springform pan with plastic wrap.
  3. Spread the softened chocolate ice cream evenly across the bottom and freeze for 30 minutes.
  4. Pour 1/2 cup of the hot fudge over the chocolate ice cream layer.
  5. Sprinkle or press the Oreo mixture on top.
  6. Freeze for another 30 minutes.
  7. Soften the strawberry ice cream for about 10 minutes, then spread it evenly over the chilled Oreo layer.
  8. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze the cake for at least 12 hours.
  9. Make the whipped cream topping by beating cold heavy cream, confectioners’ sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
  10. Remove the fully frozen cake from the springform pan and frost with the whipped cream.
  11. Decorate with sprinkles if desired.
  12. Slice and serve immediately, or return to the freezer for up to 1 hour before serving.

Notes

Work quickly when spreading softened ice cream to prevent melting. Keep the cake well wrapped in plastic wrap in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
