Ingredients for Oreo Ice Cream Cake
- Cookies: Crushed whole Oreos (including the filling) make a chocolatey crust. You can use any flavor of filled cookies.
- Ice Cream: I use vanilla ice cream in this recipe, but you can use any flavor. Strawberry or mint chocolate chip are great options.
- Fudge Sauce: The homemade fudge sauce has a thick consistency (thicker and chocolate syrup) and a rich chocolatey flavor. It’s easy to make and highly recommended in this recipe.
- Toppings: Sprinkle some nuts, extra crushed cookies, toffee pieces, or mini M&M’s for an extra special celebration!
Variations
- Use Nilla Wafers, golden Oreos, or thin mints instead of Oreos.
- Turn it into a birthday cake with golden Oreos and sprinkles.
- Layer in sliced strawberries, bananas, or blueberries in Step 3 before the fudge topping if desired.

Holly’s Tips
- Remove the ice cream from the freezer to soften before preparing this cake.
- Line the loaf pan (or a small cake pan) with parchment paper to make it easy to remove from the pan.
- Remove the frozen cake from the pan by dipping the bottom in cold water for about 5 seconds, then lift it out using the parchment paper as handles.
- To cut the cake, dip a sharp knife in hot water between each slice.

If making homemade fudge sauce, prepare the sauce according to the recipe directions and cool to room temperature.
-
Line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving some parchment overhanging the sides.
-
Remove the ice cream from the freezer to soften about 10 minutes before assembling the cake.
-
Add the Oreos to a freezer bag (including the cream center) and crush with a rolling pin until they’re the size of small peas. Alternatively, you can pulse them a few times in a food processor.
-
In a medium bowl, combine the crushed Oreos and melted butter.
-
Add 1½ cups of the Oreo mixture into the loaf pan and press to create a crust.
-
Spread half of the ice cream over the Oreo base. Drizzle ¾ cup of fudge sauce over the ice cream layer and sprinkle with ⅔ cup of the crushed Oreo mixture. Repeat layers once more.
-
Top with Cool Whip & remaining Oreo crumbs. Freeze 4 hours or overnight.
-
To remove the cake, dip the pan in hot water for 5 seconds and lift the cake out using the parchment paper. Slice and serve with the remaining fudge sauce.
- Use any flavor of ice cream.
- An offset spatula is a great way to spread the ice cream.
