Ingredients

  • 16 oz refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough
  • 3 pints cookie dough ice cream (48 oz) softened
  • 8 oz whipped topping defrosted
  • 1 cup mini milk chocolate chips
  • 12.8 oz hot fudge topping heated for 30 seconds in microwave
  • 25 Chips Ahoy cookies broken into large chunks

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9-inch springform pan (or 9-inch square baking dish) with cooking spray.
  • Press cookie dough into prepared pan and bake in the preheated oven for 13-15 minutes, or until lightly browned and baked through in the center (use a toothpick to check for doneness if needed). Let cool.
  • Top cooled cookie with an even layer of the ice cream, followed by the whipped topping, chocolate chips and hot fudge.
  • Top with the cookie pieces and immediately place in the freezer. Freeze for a minimum of 4 hours before serving.

Notes

  • Let the cookie crust cool completely before adding the ice cream layer.
  • Soften the ice cream just until spreadable, not melted.
  • Freeze for at least 4 hours, but overnight yields the cleanest slices.
  • Let the cake sit at room temperature for 10–15 minutes before slicing.
  • Store leftovers tightly covered in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
    Freeze the assembled cake overnight if possible. While 4 hours is enough, an overnight freeze creates cleaner slices and helps the layers hold together perfectly.
