Make an Ice Cream Cake

My son requested an ice cream cake for his birthday. My husband offered to pick one up from the store, since I was returning from my trip today, but I decided this would be a great opportunity to show how easy it is to make one from scratch.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Cake Mix
  • Eggs/ Oil
  • Ice Cream
  • Cookies
  • Whipped Topping
  1. Step 1
     

    Bake cake per directions on the box, let cool. You will need to make either two round cakes, two square cakes or a 9×13 and cut it in half.

  2. Step 2
     

    While the cake is cooling fill a sandwich size bag with oreo type cookies. Smash the cookies with a rolling pin or hammer.

  3. Step 3
     

    Once the cake is cool allow the ice cream to sit out for a few minutes until it is soft. Then scoop ice cream on top of one cake.

  4. Step 4
     

    Spread out the ice cream so it covers the cake completely.

  5. Step 5
     

    Sprinkle the cookie mixture on top of the ice cream.

  6. Step 6

    Put in the freezer to set.

  7. Step 7
     

    After about 30 minutes, take the cake out of the freezer and place the second cake on top of the ice cream/ cookie layer.

  8. Step 8
     

    Frost with cool whip and decorate to your liking.

  9. Step 9

    Put cake back in the freezer until serving. For best results the cake should be in the freezer for a 2 to 3 hours before serving.
