Ingredients
  

  • 24 Ice cream sandwiches - Regular size (about 2–3 boxes depending on brand)
  • 16 oz Whipped topping - Like Cool Whip, thawed
  • 12 oz Hot fudge sauce - Jarred, softened slightly for spreading
  • 1 cup Mix-ins - Crushed Oreos, sprinkles, chocolate chips, or candy

Equipment

  • 9x13 inch baking dish (Lined with parchment for easy removal)
  • Offset spatula (For spreading layers evenly)
  • Microwave (To soften fudge sauce)
  • Butter knife (To trim ice cream sandwiches if needed)
  • Freezer (To chill and set the cake)

Method
 

  1. Gather ingredients and keep ice cream sandwiches frozen. Line a 9×13 baking dish with parchment paper. Soften hot fudge sauce in microwave.
  2. Unwrap 12 sandwiches and arrange in a single layer in the pan. Trim to fit and press down gently.
  3. Spread half the whipped topping over the sandwiches. Drizzle half the fudge sauce and sprinkle half the mix-ins. Smooth evenly.
  4. Add remaining 12 sandwiches on top. Spread remaining whipped topping, drizzle remaining fudge, and sprinkle mix-ins.
  5. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and freeze at least 4 hours or overnight.
  6. Remove 5–10 minutes before slicing. Lift using parchment, slice with a warm knife, and serve!
