This was incredible! I used some Hershey’s Magic Shell (you know, the kind of chocolate that turns hard as soon as it touches ice cream) instead of the fudge layer and also to decorate the top. Incredibly delicious and it was frozen all the way through!

Also, I didn’t bother thawing the ice cream and then refreezing it — I’ve always found that method too messy. I just buy ice cream in those cardboard boxes and then use a sharp knife to cut chunks off, piece them together in the pan like a puzzle, and smooth with a spoon at the end.

Delicious! We loved all the flavors mixing together when we ate it. I didn’t let mine freeze long enough & it melted while trying to serve. Also, a 10 in. springform pan is too big. This still tasted great! Thanks for posting the recipe.

I made this for a birthday and it was a hit! Really great ice cream cake and not too difficult.

I made this with a brownie base instead of the Oreo base and oh my goodness it was good! I didn’t have a springform pan that was tall enough so I improvised and taped two of the same size together and it worked perfectly! I will definitely be making this again, everybody loved it!

this was so good! i made it for a birthday party and it was a hit! i didn’t get my layers frozen so they weren’t well defined but that didn’t affect the flavor. i either would put all the layers in right away, or i’d need to freeze it much longer in between.
but even as it melted, everyone wanted a piece! i would definitely recommend it to anyone and make it again!

I made this last weekend for the cottage and it was a hit! I substituted the ice cream with black cherry frozen yogurt and vanilla frozen yogurt as it was on sale Thanks Annalise!

I made a “double batch”—2 cakes, as we were having a bunch of company for my son’s 20th birthday. it was really good—everyone loved. I made my own hot fudge sauce, and it was perfect. make sure you use the deep freeze—my refrigerator freezer didn’t freeze it hard enough.

I made this for a work dinner party, and everyone loved it! However, I think I over-warmed the fudge, as it never froze completely solid, and I made it 4 days in advance. But unfrozen fudge and all, it was delicious!

I made this for a dinner party with my girlfriends. It was super easy and turned out great. My friends raved about it and were very impressed by the way it looked. One even told me a few days later that she had a dream about the ice cream cake I made! I’m now the official dessert-maker for our gatherings. I will definitely be making this again.
