Oreo Cookies and Ice Cream Cake

Ingredients

• 1 box brownie mix, plus ingredients required on box
• 8 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/8 cup milk
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 8 oz Cool Whip, thawed (OR 1 recipe of homemade whipped cream)
• 1 1/4 cups Oreo crumbs (from about 16 Oreos)
• 7-10 Oreos, chopped, optional
• 1 20 oz bottle chocolate sundae syrup (Here's the one I used)
• additional Oreos and whipped cream for the top, optional

Instructions

NOTE: An 8-inch springform pan is best for this recipe so that you can easily remove the cake once it's been
assembled. If you do not have a springform pan, line your pan with clear wrap before adding your parchment paper
and cake board. You can use the clear warp to lift your cake out of the pan once it's assembled and frozen.

Brownies:
1. Make brownie dough according to instructions on back of box.
2. Grease two 8-inch pans (preferable springform pans, see above) and line the bottoms with parchment paper to
allow for easy removal. Bake at temperature on box, reducing baking time to about 20 minutes (You can also bake
1 big brownie - which would cook for the normal time - and cut it in half, but cutting a brownie in half isn't super
easy).
3. When brownies are done baking, allow to completely cool.

Ice Cream:
1. Combine cream cheese, sugar, milk and vanilla together in the bowl of a stand mixer, or with a hand mixer. Mix
until completely combined.
2. Fold in the cool whip, Oreo crumbs and chopped Oreos.

Assembling it all:
1. Line the sides of an 8-inch springform pan with parchment paper. The parchment paper should stick up above
the top edge of the pan, since the cake will probably be a little taller than your pan. If you want, put a cardboard
cake circle in the bottom of the pan.
NOTE: You should be using the same 8-inch pan you used for the brownies. Not all 8-inch pans are exactly the
same size. Your brownie needs to fit in this pan.
2. Put the first brownie layer in the bottom of your pan.
3. Top with half of the Oreo ice cream.
4. Spread 1 cup of chocolate sauce over the ice cream and spread evenly.
5. Add second brownie to the pan.
6. Top with remaining Oreo ice cream.
7. Top with additional chopped Oreos, whipped cream and chocolate sauce, if desired.
8. Allow ice cream cake to freeze completely, 6-8 hours.
9. When frozen, remove from springform pan and remove parchment paper from sides.
10. Top with additional caramel sauce and chocolate sauce, allowing it to drizzle down the sides.
11. Cover with remaining chopped snickers and a little more caramel and chocolate sauce.
