How to Make Rich And Gooey Ice Cream Cake

  1. Crush 20 Oreo cookies into fine crumbs. Melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter. Combine crumbs and melted butter; press firmly into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. Freeze for 30 minutes.
  3. Spread 2 quarts of your favorite ice cream (slightly softened) evenly over the Oreo crust. Freeze for 30 minutes.
  4. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup chocolate syrup, 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk, and 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter.
  5. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring constantly for 3-5 minutes, until smooth and thickened.
  6. Remove from heat; stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Let cool slightly.
  7. Spread the chocolate mixture evenly over the ice cream layer.
  8. Freeze for 30 minutes.
  9. Top with 1 (8 ounce) container of Cool Whip and garnish with crushed Oreo crumbs. Freeze for at least 12 hours, or preferably 24 hours, before serving. Let sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before slicing to make serving easier.
