Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Chocolate sandwich cookies
- 100 grams Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 liter Chocolate ice cream, softened
- 400 grams Canned cherry pie filling
- 250 ml Whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 50 grams Dark chocolate, grated (for garnish)
- 12 pieces Fresh cherries (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Prepare a 9-inch springform pan by lining the bottom with parchment paper.
In a food processor, blend the chocolate sandwich cookies into fine crumbs. Add the melted butter and process until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the cookie mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan to create a firm crust. Place the pan in the freezer for 10 minutes to set.
Remove the softened chocolate ice cream from the freezer and evenly spread half of it over the cookie crust. Smooth the surface with a spatula.
Add the canned cherry pie filling on top of the ice cream layer, spreading it out evenly.
Spread the remaining chocolate ice cream over the cherry layer, smoothing the top to create a flat surface. Freeze the cake for at least 4-6 hours or overnight to ensure it sets well.
Before serving, whip the cream and powdered sugar together in a chilled bowl until stiff peaks form.
Release the springform pan ring and transfer the ice cream cake to a serving plate. Spread or pipe the whipped cream on top of the cake as desired.
Garnish with grated dark chocolate and fresh cherries for a festive touch.
Slice and serve immediately. Store any leftovers in the freezer.
