Equipment
- Springform Pan 9 inch
- Hand Mixer Or
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter Melted
- 1 1/2 cup Graham Cracker Crumbs
- 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 2 cup Vanilla Ice Cream Softened
- 2 cup Chocolate Ice Cream Softened
- 1/2 cup Hot Fudge Sauce
For Topping (Optional):
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and salt. Mix until the crumbs are moistened.
- Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan, using the back of a spoon or your fingers to create an even layer. Bake the crust for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned. Let cool completely.
- In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the softened vanilla ice cream until smooth and creamy. Spread the vanilla ice cream evenly over the cooled crust, smoothing it out with a rubber spatula.
- Freeze the pan for 30 minutes, or until the vanilla ice cream is firm.
- Remove the pan from the freezer and pour the hot fudge sauce over the vanilla ice cream layer, spreading it out with a spoon. Return the pan to the freezer for another 30 minutes.
- In another large mixing bowl, beat the softened chocolate ice cream until smooth and creamy. Spread the chocolate ice cream over the fudge sauce layer, smoothing it out with a rubber spatula.
- Cover the pan with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until the ice cream cake is completely frozen.
- Before serving, let the ice cream cake sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly. Remove the sides of the springform pan and transfer the cake to a serving plate.
- Top with whipped cream and cherries, if desired. Cut into slices and serve immediately.
