Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Chocolate wafer cookies
- 100 grams Unsalted butter, melted
- 1.5 liters Vanilla ice cream, softened
- 200 grams Dark chocolate, melted
- 100 grams Milk chocolate, melted
- 100 grams Creamy peanut butter
- 200 ml Heavy cream
- 100 grams Chocolate freckles (sprinkles)
Instructions
Line a 9-inch (23 cm) springform pan with parchment paper and set aside.
In a food processor, crush the chocolate wafer cookies until fine crumbs form. Add the melted butter and pulse until well combined.
Press the cookie mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form an even crust. Place the pan in the freezer to chill for 10 minutes.
Scoop the softened vanilla ice cream onto the chilled crust and spread it evenly using a spatula. Ensure the layer is smooth and uniform. Freeze for 30 minutes, or until firm.
In the meantime, combine the melted dark chocolate, melted milk chocolate, peanut butter, and heavy cream in a mixing bowl. Whisk until smooth and silky.
Pour the chocolate mixture over the firm ice cream layer, spreading it evenly across the top. Tap the pan gently on the counter to remove air bubbles.
Sprinkle the chocolate freckles (sprinkles) generously over the top while the chocolate layer is still wet, pressing them lightly to ensure they stick.
Return the cake to the freezer and allow it to set for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
When ready to serve, remove the pan from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for 5 minutes. Run a warm knife around the edges to release the cake, then remove the springform ring.
Slice into pieces using a sharp knife dipped in warm water and serve immediately. Enjoy!
