Oreo Fudge and Ice Cream Cake

Today I offer you the Oreo Fudge and Ice Cream Cake.

My sister-in-law made this a couple of months ago and I didn't think to take a picture of it. Why would I? I didn't make it. And since I want you to be able to make everyone think you are a dessert genius and the weekend falls after tomorrow I am just going to share the photo from Kraftfoods.com, the designers of this tasty dessert.

Prep Time: 10 min
Total Time: 4 hr 10 min
Makes: 12 servings

1/2 cup hot fudge ice cream topping, warmed
1 tub (8 oz.) COOL WHIP Whipped Topping, thawed, divided
1 pkg. (4-serving size) JELL-O Chocolate Flavor Instant Pudding & Pie Filling
8 OREO Chocolate Sandwich Cookies, chopped (about 1 cup)
12 vanilla ice cream sandwiches, unwrapped



POUR fudge topping into medium bowl. Add 1 cup of the whipped topping; stir with wire whisk until well blended. Add dry pudding mix; stir 2 min. or until well blended. Gently stir in chopped cookies; set aside.
ARRANGE 4 of the ice cream sandwiches, side-by-side, on 24-inch-long piece of foil; top with half of the whipped topping mixture. Repeat layers. Top with remaining 4 ice cream sandwiches. Frost top and sides of dessert with remaining whipped topping. Bring up foil sides. Double fold top and ends to loosely seal packet.
FREEZE at least 4 hours before serving. Store leftover dessert in freezer.

**Note: if the fudge topping you use is too thick to spread easily stir in up to 1/4 cup milk.
** Go crazy and try Neopolitan Ice Cream Sandwiches!
** Or experiment with mint Oreo cookies! MMMM!
