Yasmin loved ice cream cakes when she was growing up. She enjoyed breaking through the different layers with her spoon until she reached the bottom.

Layer the ice cream cake:

  • Unwrap 6 ice cream sandwiches, line the pan with 3 of them, cutting one of them in half to fit the pan. Place the remaining 3 ice cream sandwiches on top of sandwiches in the pan.
  • Spread 2 cups of softened strawberry ice cream over the top of ice cream sandwiches, smooth the top to make an even layer.
  • Repeat the above procedure using the remaining 6 ice cream sandwiches and strawberry ice cream.
  • Sprinkle the top with the crushed chocolate cookies; lightly pat the crumbs on the top, making sure that the top is smooth.
  • Cover with heavy aluminum foil; place covered pan in the freezer overnight or until completely frozen.

 To remove from the pan,

  • Uncover; invert the ice cream cake onto a flat surface or serving platter. (Use the aluminum foil to help wiggle the cake out if it sticks to the pan); remove the foil.
  • Shake the chocolate shell container thoroughly, then pour the chocolate fudge shell over the top and let it drizzle over the cake onto the platter.
  • Sprinkle the tiny ice cream dots over the entire top of ice cream cake.
  • Place the platter with the finished cake in the freezer until serving.

 To serve:
Garnish the top with about 3 fresh strawberries. Serve in slices on individual plates.

Yield: Serves about 8 to 10
