Although there are many sweet treats we could enjoy, it seems as if many of us tend to gravitate toward something that is just a little bit nostalgic. That is why Oreos are such a popular treat in many homes. Not only are they delicious and a lot of fun to eat, they also remind us of the day when we use to enjoy the snack as children.
Of course, there are also many other types of desserts to enjoy and that is what makes this Oreo ice pancakes so unique. It is the perfect combination of everything that is good and once you put it on the plate, it will disappear like magic.
Ingredients:
1/2 carton Cookies & Cream ice cream
about 17 OREO cookies
3 cups of whipped cream (or about 2/3 an 8-oz container of Cool Whip)
6 chocolate graham crackers
1 1/2 cups chocolate ganache
For the ganache you’ll need:
16 oz chocolate {roughly 2 2/3 cup}
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup butter
Directions:
Line a bread pan with parchment or foil.
Place graham crackers into the bottom of the pan. Top with two 1″ slices of ice cream.
Spread 1 cup of whipped cream over the top of the ice cream and press whole Oreo cookies into the whipped cream.
Top with another small layer of whipped cream and drizzle with about ½ cup of chocolate ganache.
Top with 2 more 1″ slices of ice cream and then the remaining 3 graham crackers. Spread the remaining 1 cup of whipped cream over the crackers.
Cover and freeze for at least a couple hours, but preferably overnight.
Remove cake from bread pan and place on a tray or serving plate. Pour about 1 cup of chocolate ganache over frozen cake, letting it drip a bit down the sides.
Crush remaining Oreo cookies and sprinkle on top of ganache.
Return to freezer until ready to serve.
