Ingredients
UnitsScale
12 store-bought ice cream sandwiches
2cups (480 ml) whipped cream or whipped topping
1/2cup (120 ml) hot fudge sauce
1/4cup chocolate chips (optional)
1/4cup chopped nuts (optional)
1/2cup sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
Line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with plastic wrap, leaving an overhang on all sides.
Place 6 ice cream sandwiches in a single layer in the bottom of the pan, trimming to fit if necessary.
Spoon 1 cup of whipped cream evenly over the sandwiches and smooth the top with a spatula.
Drizzle half of the hot fudge sauce over the whipped cream.
Arrange the remaining 6 ice cream sandwiches on top of the fudge layer.
Spread the remaining whipped cream over the top layer, then drizzle with remaining hot fudge sauce.
Sprinkle chocolate chips, nuts, and sprinkles over the top, if desired.
Fold the plastic wrap over the top to cover and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.
Remove from freezer 10 minutes before serving. Use the plastic wrap to lift the cake from the pan, unwrap, slice, and serve immediately.
Notes
You can use any flavor of ice cream sandwiches for variety.
Substitute whipped cream with Cool Whip or another whipped topping if preferred.
Letting the cake sit at room temperature for a few minutes makes slicing easier.
Customize toppings with crushed cookies, caramel sauce, or fresh fruit.
Store leftovers covered in the freezer for up to 1 week.
