ice cream sandwich ice cream cake
This is a delicious recipe that can be tweaked to your individual tastes. Peanuts can be substituted with crushed Oreos, your favorite candy bars broken up, etc. You can use different dessert sauces such as caramel in place of chocolate, or just use both. This was really good and so easy. I used French vanilla Cool Whip instead of regular. Use your imagination. It sure is a winner at any birthday party, etc! You can also decorate the top of this ice cream cake for a child or adult's birthday with an edible sheet cake image or other party decorations for any occasion.
