Making an Ice Cream Sandwich Cake

Ingredients:

• 2 boxes of ice cream sandwiches (24 total bars)
• 1 carton of whipped topping

Directions:

1. Place 12 of the ice cream sandwiches in a 9 x 13 inch dish. (You may have to cut the last one and fill in with it.)
2. Stir the whipped topping to add volume. Spread half of the topping on top of sandwiches.
3. Place the remaining 12 sandwiches on top of the whipped topping.
4. Spread remaining whipped topping over the top layer of ice cream sandwiches.
5. Cover with plastic wrap and put into the freezer until ready to serve.

If you want to fancy it up, you can drizzle a little chocolate syrup over each serving and top with a maraschino cherry and a sprig of mint. No one would ever believe how simple this dessert was to prepare. However, I have never been able to keep it a secret and people are always surprised to learn how easy it was to make.

Ingredients

• 1 box of ice cream sandwiches (I use storebrand)
• 1 large lite or regular Cool Whip
• chocolate syrup*

*I use the store brand of chocolate syrup or if you have some chocolate chips on hand you can melt some in the microwave and use for your drizzle on top.

Directions

Layer ice cream sandwiches in a cake pan. Top with the Cool Whip, then drizzle chocolate syrup on top, using as much as you like. Repeat if you have room in your pan. Freeze before serving.

This is always is a very quick and easy recipe to make ahead of time or at the last minute. Adults and children of all ages like this easy dessert.

Ingredients:

• ice cream sandwiches
• 1/2 gallon Cookies and Cream ice cream
• chocolate sauce
• peanut butter, melted
• candy (Reese's, etc.)

Directions:

First line a cake pan with ice cream sandwiches. I use the regular ones with the vanilla ice cream in the middle with the chocolate cookies. Soften a half gallon of ice cream of your choice. Spread half the ice cream on your ice cream sandwiches.

Drizzle some chocolate sauce and some melted peanut butter on the top of the ice cream. Put remaining ice cream on top of that and again drizzle the top with chocolate sauce and peanut butter, then top with some broken up Reese's or whatever candy you like. Cover and freeze for an hour or so. So easy and you won't have any left, trust me, it is delicious and easy.
