Ingredients 

  • 1 lb Oreo cookies
  • ½ cup butter or margarine melted
  • ½ gallon vanilla ice cream slightly softened
  • 8 oz whipped topping thawed
  • 1 cup pecan halves or pieces
  • 16 ounces chocolate syrup

Instructions

  • Crush the cookies in a large plastic bag using a rolling pin, or use a food processor to crush the cookies. Mix crushed cookies with melted butter. Measure 3/4 cup and set aside. Press remaining cookie mixture evenly into an ungreased 9 x 13-inch pan, to form the bottom layer of the cake.
  • Spread softened ice cream over cookie layer. Spread whipped topping over ice cream. Sprinkle pecans over whipped topping. Drizzle chocolate syrup over all. Sprinkle reserved 3/4 cup cookie mixture over syrup. Freeze.
  • After cake has been in freezer 2 to 3 hours and is beginning to firm up, cover pan with foil. For best texture, assemble and freeze cake 2 days in advance. To serve, simply cut into squares and enjoy.
