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!
