This is better than any Dairy Queen frozen cake! -experiment using different flavors of ice cream and toppings, the possibilities are endless, small Oreo cookies and Oreo ice cream works well - homemade soft cookies will not work for the crust, the cookies must be hard - prep time includes 5 hour freezing time - this is *SO* good!
Ingredients:
1 (18 ounce) package small chocolate chip cookies, divided (must be store-bought not soft cookies)
1/4 cup melted butter or 1/4 cup margarine
2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 cups hershey's hot fudge topping, divided (or use favorite brand)
2 quarts ice cream, divided (slightly softened but not melted, use any flavor desired)
whipped cream (use any amount desired to garnish)
maraschino cherry (use any amount to garnish)
Directions:
1. Prepare a 9-inch springform pan.
2. Finely crush only HALF of the small cookies to make the crumbs.
3. Place in a bowl with melted butter or margarine and 2 tablespoons sugar; mix to combine.
4. Press into the bottom of the springform pan.
5. Stand the remaining cookies around the edge of the pan.
6. Spread 1 cup hot fudge sauce over the crust.
7. Freeze for about 30-40 minutes.
8. Spread 1-quart of the slightly softened ice cream over the chocolate sauce; freeze for about 20-30 minutes.
9. Using an ice cream scooper scoop the remaining quart of ice cream into balls and arrange over the spreaded ice cream.
10. Freeze for about 4 hours or until completely firm.
11. To serve, garnish with remainder of fudge topping, whipped cream and cherries.
