What You’ll Need for Your Oreo Ice Cream Cake

For the Oreo Crust

For the Ice Cream Layer

For the Whipped Cream Topping

  • Sprinkles or chocolate shavings: Add a vibrant touch with sprinkles or chocolate shavings for extra color and a delightful crunch.

Pro Tips for Ingredient Success

  • Crush Oreos Evenly: Use a food processor for fine crumbs or a ziplock bag and rolling pin for a chunkier texture—your choice!
  • Quality Ingredients: Since this recipe is simple using high-quality ice cream and fresh cream makes a noticeable difference.
