Equipment

  • Serving dish or tray
  • Offset spatula or knife
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients
  

  • 24 pieces Ice cream sandwiches
  • 3 cups Whipped cream
  • 1 cup Chocolate syrup
  • 1 cup Caramel sauce
  • 1 cup Chopped nuts (pecans, almonds, or walnuts)
  • ½ cup Maraschino cherries
  • ½ cup Sprinkles (optional for added color)

Instructions
 

  • Begin by laying out eight ice cream sandwiches side by side on a flat surface, creating the base layer of your cake. Depending on your serving dish, you may need to adjust the number of sandwiches used.
  • Next, evenly spread a layer of whipped cream over the ice cream sandwiches. It's a delightful contrast I stumbled upon during my initial trials, with the creamy whipped texture offsetting the crispy sandwich layers.
  • Generously drizzle both the chocolate syrup and caramel sauce over the whipped cream. Ensure an even spread to get that rich taste in every bite.
  • Place another layer of ice cream sandwiches on top, pressing down gently to secure them in place.
  • Repeat the process with another layer of whipped cream, followed by the chocolate and caramel sauces.
  • Top the entire cake with a generous sprinkle of chopped nuts, adding both flavor and a delightful crunch. Dot with maraschino cherries and, if you're feeling festive, some colorful sprinkles.
  • Place the cake in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results. This allows the layers to meld and the flavors to intensify.
  • Before serving, allow the cake to sit for about 5-10 minutes at room temperature. This makes slicing a breeze. Serve and watch the smiles light up the room!

Notes

  • Layering — Ensure each layer is spread evenly to get the perfect bite every time.
 
  • Serving — A sharp knife dipped in hot water makes slicing this frozen delight much easier.
