Please read my disclosure policy. Four-ingredient Ice Cream Sandwich Cake is made with ice cream sandwiches, cookies-and-cream ice cream, and a crushed Oreo whipped cream topping! Ice Cream Sandwich Cake This is another ice cream dessert my mom often made when I was growing up, just like her Ice Cream Pie. It was a favorite, and we’d ask her to make more before the first batch was even gone! A few summers ago, I made this dessert when we had a bunch of neighborhood kids over. I shared slices with them, and their responses were adorable—they couldn’t stop raving about it! They even told me it was the best dessert they’d ever had! This cake is perfect for parties—it’s a hit with kids and adults! And it’s super simple to make! Only four ingredients and about 10 minutes of prep for an ice cream cake that will absolutely be the hit of the summer! Ingredients Vanilla Ice Cream Sandwiches: These form the base and middle layers, which gives the cake structure and all the great flavor! Cookies and Cream Ice Cream: Use a good quality ice cream that you love! I say, the more Oreo chunks, the better! Frozen Whipped Topping: A light, fluffy topping finishes the cake perfectly! Oreo Cookies: Crushed and sprinkled on top for added crunch and a pretty finish. How To Make Ice Cream Sandwich Cake Line the Pan: Use parchment paper leaving an overhang to easily remove the cake for cutting and serving. Layer the Ingredients: Start with a layer of ice cream sandwiches, followed by a layer of ice cream. Repeat with another layer of ice cream sandwiches and a final layer of ice cream. Add Toppings: Right before serving, spread whipped cream over the whole cake and sprinkle crushed Oreos® on top. QUICK TIP For a 9×13-inch pan: You’ll need about 24 ice cream sandwiches, 1 and ½ containers of ice cream, and 2 containers of whipped cream. Ice Cream Sandwich Cake Variations Neapolitan: Use Neapolitan ice cream sandwiches with chocolate, strawberry, or vanilla ice cream. Mint Chocolate: Use mint chocolate ice cream sandwiches and mint chocolate ice cream. Candy Bar: Use vanilla ice cream sandwiches with any ice cream and crushed candy (like toffee, M&M’s, Reese’s, Snickers, Kit Kat, Rolos, etc.). Hot Fudge or Caramel Sauce: Add hot fudge or caramel sauce to the cake for extra sweetness. Peppermint Ice Cream Bars: Perfect for the holiday season! Tips For Success Use Parchment Paper: Line the pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy lifting and slicing. Firm Press: Press down firmly on each layer of ice cream sandwiches and ice cream to make sure the cake holds together when frozen. Soften Ice Cream: Let the cookies-and-cream ice cream sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes for easier spreading. Crush Oreos Fresh: Crush Oreos right before sprinkling them on top to keep them crunchy. Clean Slices: Run a sharp knife under hot water, wipe it dry, and then slice the cake. Repeat for each cut for clean slices. STORAGE Store any Ice Cream Sandwich Cake leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer. Best enjoyed within 2 weeks. QUICK TIP To get clean slices, run your knife under hot water for a few seconds, wipe to dry, make 1 slice, and repeat.
