Oreo Freakout!


A 40th Birthday called for a special cake/dessert!! Ice cream cake!! A friend made this at work a couple years ago - it stuck in my head ~~ then, when my friend C made something similar recently ~ the idea was reborn! And again, this fits the new mom criteria..... easy & quick to make.



Oreo Freakout!!

Ingredients
1 package Oreo cookies
1/2 gallon vanilla ice cream, softened (don't forget "half gallons" of ice cream are smaller now--so you will need a little more than one container
1 jar Hershey's hot fudge sauce (do not HEAT it)
peanuts
1 large container of Cool Whip

Directions
Crush the Oreos (filling, too). Spread a layer of cookies on the bottom of a 9" x 13" pan (about half the crushed cookies). Spread the ice cream on the Oreos (this can be tricky--use your hands!). Spread the fudge sauce on the ice cream. Sprinkle a layer of peanuts on the fudge sauce. Spread Cool Whip on the top. Top with the remaining crushed cookies. Cover and freeze. Keep frozen. ENJOY!!
