Ingredients

Units Scale

Crust:

  • 20 chocolate sandwich cookies (like Oreos)
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Strawberry Layer:

  • 1 pint strawberry ice cream, slightly softened
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, diced

Chocolate Layer:

  • 1 pint chocolate ice cream, slightly softened

Topping:

  • 1 cup whipped topping (like Cool Whip)
  • 1/2 cup chocolate ganache or melted chocolate
  • 46 fresh strawberries, halved or whole, for garnish
  • Optional: chocolate shavings

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: Lightly grease and line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper. Crush the chocolate sandwich cookies in a food processor, then mix with melted butter. Press the mixture into the pan and freeze for 10 minutes.
  2. Layer the Ice Cream: Spread the softened strawberry ice cream over the chilled crust. Sprinkle diced strawberries on top and press them in. Freeze for 30–45 minutes. Spread the chocolate ice cream over the strawberry layer and freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  3. Top and Serve: Before serving, spread whipped topping over the cake. Drizzle with ganache, garnish with strawberries and chocolate shavings, then let sit for a few minutes before slicing.

Notes

  • For easier slicing, dip the knife in warm water between cuts.
  • You can use vanilla or strawberry sorbet instead of ice cream.
  • Best enjoyed within 2–3 days of assembly.
