Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup chocolate sandwich cookies crushed
  • ¼ cup butter melted
  • 1 quart strawberry ice cream slightly softened
  • ½ cup strawberry jam
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp powdered sugar

Equipment

  • Measuring Cup and Spoons
  • Mixing Bowls
  • 9-inch Springform Pan

Method
 

  1. Crush chocolate cookies into fine crumbs and mix with melted butter until it resembles wet sand. Press into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan and freeze for 10 minutes.
  2. Let strawberry ice cream soften for 10-15 minutes, then spread over the crust. Drizzle strawberry jam and gently marble it into the ice cream. Freeze again for 30 minutes.
  3. Heat heavy cream until steaming, pour over chocolate chips, and stir until smooth to create ganache. Pour ganache over the frozen strawberry layer and freeze for another 10 minutes.

Notes

Feel free to substitute with graham crackers for the crust or replace strawberry ice cream with vanilla or chocolate. Use any berry jam you prefer. For ganache, warm high-quality store-bought hot fudge sauce can be used. Store the cake tightly covered in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Add whipped cream just before serving for the best texture. For cleaner slices, run a sharp knife under hot water before cutting.
