Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Oreo Crust
  • 38-42 pieces classic Oreo cookies family-size package minus a handful
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
Ice Cream Layer
  • 1.5 quarts vanilla ice cream, softened or preferred flavor
Chocolate Fudge Layer
  • 12-14 oz hot fudge topping
  • 1 cup heavy cream or half-and-half optional, to thin fudge if needed
Whipped Topping Layer
  • 8-12 oz whipped topping store-bought or homemade
Decoration
  • 8-10 pieces Oreo cookies, crushed or chopped
  • optional extras chocolate drizzle, mini chocolate chips, sprinkles, cocoa powder

Method
 

  1. Place the Oreo cookies into a food processor and pulse into fine crumbs, or crush them in a sealed bag using a rolling pin.
  2. Transfer crumbs to a mixing bowl, drizzle in melted butter, and stir until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×13 pan. Freeze for 10–15 minutes.
  3. Soften the ice cream at room temperature for 10–15 minutes, then spoon it over the cold crust. Smooth into an even layer and freeze for at least 1 hour.
  4. Warm the fudge topping until pourable (10–20 seconds). If needed, stir in heavy cream for easier spreading. Pour over the frozen ice cream layer and smooth gently. Freeze 45–60 minutes.
  5. Spread the whipped topping evenly over the set fudge layer, keeping its fluffy texture. Freeze for at least 2 hours.
  6. Before serving, top with crushed Oreos and any optional decorations. Cover loosely and keep frozen until slicing.

Notes

For easier slicing, let the cake sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before cutting. You can customize the ice cream flavor or add crushed cookies between layers for extra texture.
