Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Chocolate wafer cookies
- 60 grams Unsalted butter (melted)
- 500 ml Vanilla ice cream
- 500 ml Coffee ice cream
- 100 ml Chocolate syrup
- 60 ml Irish cream liqueur
- 250 ml Whipped cream
- 30 grams Chocolate shavings or curls (for garnish)
- 1 teaspoon Instant coffee granules (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Prepare the crust by crushing the chocolate wafer cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a resealable bag and using a rolling pin to crush them.
In a medium bowl, combine the cookie crumbs with the melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated.
Press the crumb mixture into the base of an 8-inch springform pan or pie dish to create an even layer. Chill the crust in the freezer for 10 minutes to set.
Soften the vanilla ice cream slightly by leaving it at room temperature for 5 minutes. Spread it evenly over the chilled crust. Place the pan back in the freezer to set for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, soften the coffee ice cream using the same method. In a small bowl, stir the Irish cream liqueur into the coffee ice cream until combined.
Spread the coffee ice cream mixture over the vanilla ice cream layer. Return the pan to the freezer and allow the entire dessert to firm up for at least 2 hours.
Once the ice cream layers are set, drizzle the chocolate syrup generously over the top surface.
Just before serving, pipe or spoon whipped cream in decorative swirls across the top. Garnish with chocolate shavings or curls and sprinkle with a pinch of instant coffee granules, if desired.
Slice into wedges using a knife dipped in warm water for clean cuts. Serve immediately and enjoy your Mud Slide Ice Cream Dream!
