Ingredients

  • Unsalted butter
  • Granulated sugar
  • Brown sugar
  • Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • Vanilla extract
  • Salt
  • Mini chocolate chips
  • All-purpose flour
  • Ice cream sandwiches (Classic Vanilla, Chocolate, or Mint Chip)
  • Whipped topping (like Cool Whip or freshly made whipped cream)
  • Fudge sauce or chocolate ganache
  • Extra cookie dough crumbles
  • Sprinkles
  • Chocolate shavings or chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Edible Cookie Dough (if making homemade): First, if you're making your own cookie dough, remember to heat-treat your flour! Spread the flour on a microwave-safe plate or bowl and microwave on high for 30-60 seconds, stirring every 15 seconds, until it reaches 160°F. Let it cool completely before using.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter with both the granulated and brown sugars until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the milk and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the cooled, heat-treated flour and salt, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Stir in your mini chocolate chips by hand. Set aside.
  6. Prep Your Pan: Choose a 9×13 inch baking pan for a standard cake, or a springform pan for a round cake. Line your pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides.
  7. Lay the First Layer of Ice Cream Sandwiches: Unwrap your ice cream sandwiches. Arrange a single layer of sandwiches tightly on the bottom of your prepared pan. Press them down gently to create an even base.
  8. Spread the First Cookie Dough Layer: Evenly spread about half of your edible cookie dough over the layer of ice cream sandwiches.
  9. Add the Second Layer of Ice Cream Sandwiches: Carefully arrange another layer of ice cream sandwiches on top of the cookie dough layer. Press them down gently.
  10. Top with More Cookie Dough (Optional) or Whipped Topping: Spread the remaining cookie dough over this top layer of ice cream sandwiches or spread your whipped topping evenly over the final layer.
  11. Freeze to Set: Place the entire cake, uncovered, into your freezer. Freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or preferably overnight.
  12. Decorate and Serve: Once the cake is fully frozen, use the parchment paper handles to carefully lift it out of the pan. Decorate with fudge sauce, extra mini chocolate chips, sprinkles, or crumbled cookie dough. Slice and serve immediately.
