Super easy and very quick. My husband absolutely loves ice cream cake and begs me to make it all the time and I have always avoided it because I thought it would be too time consuming and difficult. My husband was a very happy camper when I pulled this out of the freezer after dinner tonight. It will become a common dessert in my house now that I know how easy it is to make. I think that you could easily change up the flavor by using different cookies, ice creams and ice cream toppings. Thanks for uploading this great recipe BajanDredi. Made for PAC Spring 2014.
