I can’t thank you enough for this recipe. My wallet thanks you also. Birthdays have changed for the best in our house. A few members are not fond of regular cake and store bought ice cream cakes are expensive and gross if you ask me. This version is much richer and yummy/gooey. I love modifying it for each family member for their favorite candy bar. The oreo crust stuck together just fine for me, I think they worked well because the oreo frosting helped them stick. Thanks for posting this!

I had a little trouble with this. The Oreo crust basically was just crumbs on the plate, they didn’t form any kind of crust or stick to the ice cream. I think maybe some melted butter added in would have helped it stick together better.
Maybe my freezer wasn’t freezing cold enough, but when we took it out 20 minutes ahead of time, the cake was dripping and melting quickly. It had been in the freezer about 22 hours beforehand, but unless you have it in a deep freeze, you may not want to wait 20 minutes to cut into it.

This was awesome! I am a serious Butterfinger lover and nothing can beat that top layer. I also did a layer of 15 crushed oreos in the center above the hot fudge, mostly because I was so excited that I stopped paying attention to the recipe. It worked out great and was the hit of the Memorial Day party!

Thank you so much for this recipe! No more boring cakes in this house. I just made this 2 weeks in a row for 2 B-days. What a money saver! The variations are endless too. Thanks again!
