👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Base: In a 9×13 inch baking dish, lay down a single layer of the ice cream sandwiches to cover the bottom completely.

Step 2

Ice Cream Layer: Spread the softened chocolate ice cream over the layer of ice cream sandwiches, smoothing it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 3

Hot Fudge Layer: Drizzle half of the hot fudge sauce over the chocolate ice cream layer, spreading it evenly.

Step 4

Second Ice Cream Layer: Add the softened vanilla ice cream on top of the hot fudge layer, smoothing it out just like the chocolate layer.

Step 5

Peanut Butter Layer: Dollop the peanut butter in small spoonfuls over the vanilla ice cream. Use a knife or spatula to gently swirl the peanut butter into the ice cream without mixing it completely.

Step 6

Final Touches: Spread the whipped cream (or whipped topping) over the top, smoothing it out evenly.

Step 7

Chill: Drizzle the remaining hot fudge sauce on top and sprinkle with crushed peanuts if desired. Cover the cake with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.

Step 8

Serve: Once frozen, slice the ice cream cake into squares and serve with a cherry on top of each piece. Enjoy your delicious Buster Bar Ice Cream Cake!
