I have teamed up with Mars to bring you this amazing recipe! All opinions and experiences are 100% my own.

Did you know that July is National Ice Cream month? And July 19th was National Ice Cream Day?  It totally is and was!!  So for a last minute easy Ice Cream Treat how about an M&M’S® Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich Cake??  I know I have made a lot of Ice Cream Confections this month and I have to tell you this one could not be any more amazing than the last one I made!!

Starting with M&M’S® Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich. Cool and creamy vanilla ice cream surrounded by two chewy, home-style cookies with lots of M&M’S® MINIS® Chocolate Candies baked right in. Then adding in some more delicious elements and you will have a stunning desserts your friends and family think you slaved over!!

I took my trusty 6 inch spring form pan and first baked a bottom crust with chocolate chip cookie dough!

You will only need 3 M&M’S® Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich cut each into four pieces so they are triangle shaped.Place each piece around the edge of the spring form pan pressing to the outer edge and make sure you alternate each piece triangle point up and triangle point down so they wedge together.  You may have to wiggle the pieces so they fit and rim the edge of the pan.

From a 1 pint container of vanilla ice cream that has been softened, place about 1/2 to 3/4 cup of  vanilla ice cream in the middle of the cookie lined pan and press down. Add 2 heaping tablespoons of chocolate fudge topping over the layer of ice cream and spread over the top of the ice cream layer.

Then add another layer of softened ice cream.  Sprinkle with about 2 tablespoons of mini m&m candies.  Then spread with remaining ice cream to the edge of the pan covering the top of the whole cake.

Place in freezer and freeze for at least 3 hours.

Before serving decorate the top of cake with more cut up M&M’S® Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich pieces, mini m&m’s and fudge ice cream topping. When ready to eat let soften for about 30 minutes before cutting and serving.
