Ice Cream Cake

Oooh, look how beautiful it is!

I won't tell you how many slices of this I've had.

After last years disaster birthday ice cream cake (see below), I wanted to be sure to have a nice one for Bryson's birthday this year.

This year I looked up a recipe on allrecipies.com for an ice cream cake. This one was totally a cheater cake, but it tastes and looks great.

• 
  

  1 (16oz) can chocolate syrup

• 
  

  3/4 cup peanut butter

• 
  

  19 ice cream sandwhiches

• 
  

  1 (12 oz) container frozen whipped topping, thawed

• 
  

  Whatever kind of topping you would like: nuts, candy, sprinkles, etc. I used an assortment of reese's pieces, the small reese's and the large reese's.

1. Pour the chocolate syrup into a medium microwave safe bowl and microwave on high for 2 minutes. Do not allow to boil. Stir peanut butter into the chocolate until smooth. Allow to cool to room temperature.
2. Line the bottom of a 9x13 inch dish with a layer of ice cream sandwhiches. Spread half the chocolate mixture over that, then add half the whipped cream, and top with whatever candy/nut you picked. Repeat these layers. Freeze until firm, about 1 hour. Cut into squares and serve.

Happy birthday, big guy! Love you tons.
