Everyone loves an easy no-bake dessert! This cookies and cream ice cream is a favorite in the summertime and comes together so easily. Some of my other favorite easy no-bake desserts are this cheesecake, this pie, and these cookies.
What is Cookies and Cream Ice Cream Cake?
Everyone loves the combination of cookies and cream. This Oreo ice cream cake starts with a delicious cookie crust smothered with a layer of fudge sauce. The cookies and cream ice cream is even creamier with the unexpected addition of the whipped topping (cool-whip) both in and on the ice cream layer. The presentation of this dessert is what impresses everyone. Little do they know how easy it is to top off this dessert with more drizzled fudge sauce and more crumbled cookies to make it look so professional!
