Ingredients
- 1 box brownie mix
- 1 cup chocolate chip cookie dough
- 1 package Oreo cookies
- 1 pint vanilla ice cream
- 1 cup chocolate fudge sauce
- Whipped cream for topping
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan thoroughly with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
- Prepare the brownie mix according to package instructions. Pour the prepared brownie batter into the greased baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Crumble the chocolate chip cookie dough into small pieces and scatter them randomly over the brownie batter. Press the cookie dough pieces lightly into the surface.
- Arrange a layer of whole Oreo cookies on top of the brownie and cookie dough layer, covering the entire surface.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Remove from the oven and let the brownie base cool completely at room temperature, approximately 1-2 hours.
- Once cooled, soften the vanilla ice cream at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to make it easily spreadable.
- Spread the softened vanilla ice cream in an even layer over the cooled brownie base, covering the entire surface.
- Drizzle the chocolate fudge sauce generously over the ice cream layer, creating a decorative pattern.
- Place the cake in the freezer for at least 2-3 hours or until the ice cream is completely firm.
- Before serving, let the cake sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly.
- Top with whipped cream and additional crumbled Oreo cookies if desired. Slice and serve immediately.
Tips
- Temperature is Key: Make sure to let the brownie base cool completely before adding the ice cream layer to prevent melting and maintain the perfect texture.
- Softening Ice Cream: Allow the vanilla ice cream to soften for just 5-10 minutes at room temperature. This makes it easier to spread without becoming too runny.
- Freezing Technique: For the cleanest cuts, freeze the cake for at least 2-3 hours before serving. This helps the layers set and makes slicing much easier.
- Make-Ahead Magic: This cake can be prepared a day in advance and kept in the freezer, making it perfect for party planning.
- Serving Tip: Let the cake sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before serving to soften slightly and make cutting easier.
- Customization: Feel free to experiment with different ice cream flavors or add extra toppings like chocolate chips, caramel sauce, or additional crushed cookies.
- Storage: Cover the cake tightly with plastic wrap or store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 5 days.
