Oreo Cookies and Cream Ice Cream Cake
You might find it strange that I’m posting not one, but two frozen treats in the month of January, but I see no reason to boycott ice cream at any point in the year. I eat it year round! In fact, just the other day I sat in front of the lovely fire the hubs made with a carton and went to town on a left over carton of eggnog ice cream. No shame here.
And this ice cream cake is definitely worth making, no matter the weather. I stuffed it with as many Oreos as I could without literally putting a pile of Oreos on a plate. You’ll need just about a whole package. No skimping folks.
And it’s not just stuffed with chunks of Oreo. Because let’s be honest – that’s not enough. It’s full of Oreo crumbs as well to give you the full cookies and cream experience.
You literally can’t take a bite of this without getting a mouth full of Oreo awesomeness. A truly irresistable cookies and cream dessert.
How to Make Oreo Cookies and Cream Ice Cream Cake
You start with my usual suspects – two layers of brownie and my favorite no-ice-cream-machine-needed ice cream base. To that ice cream base you add loads and loads of Oreo.
Pretty easy so far, right?
Next, you want to prepare your pan for building the cake. I’ve noted this in the instructions, but it’s important to use the same pan to build the cake as you did to make the brownies, otherwise the brownies may be too big or small.
I usually put a cake circle in the bottom of the cake pan I used and line it with parchment paper. The cake circle makes it nice an easy to move the cake around once I take it out of the pan.
Now comes the layering – the fun part!
We’ve got a layer of brownie on the bottom, topped with Oreo ice cream. Add some chocolate sauce to that and you’re half way there! You add the second brownie, the rest of the ice cream and then top with even more chopped Oreos, chocolate sauce and whipped cream. Bam! All done!
It’s the most fabulous ice cream cake ever. Seriously. You can’t buy this in the store people. And you won’t want to stop eating it. So you know what that means – time to make the cake and grab a fork.

This is so professional looking! I wish that my cakes turned out like yours look! Thanks for the recipe!
Thanks Katy! 🙂
Do we need to defrost the cake before serving?
You can set it out for 10-15 minutes before serving to soften it, but it should be served frozen.
I would like to make this but i’m afraid once frozen the brownie will be too hard to cut into and to also eat frozen brownie.
If you set it out about 15 minutes before cutting, you shouldn’t have a problem with cutting or eating the brownies. If you’d prefer cake layers though, check this recipe out and replace the brownies with the cake layers
Hello. I’m really wanting to make this cake using the cake layers instead of the brownies, however when I click “this recipe” below it won’t open. Could you please direct me to where I can find the recipe? Thanks in advance.
I looked at the post but couldn’t quickly see what “this recipe” link you’re referring to, so I’m not sure. Can you give me a little more information.
You are speaking straight to my tummy! Thanks for the wonderful recipe. Definitely pinned.
Thanks for the pin Rachel!

These recipes look wonderful! All of the recipes with brownies call for a brownie mix. What size mix is it? For a 8×8 or a 9×13 pan. I know it needs to be divided between to 8′ inch springform pans. The 8×8 just seems that it would be to thin.
You can really use either based on how thick of a brownie layer you want. The 9×13 would probably be easiest though.
it looks amazing!

I’m not that much of a online reader to be honest but your blogs really nice, keep it up!
I’ll go ahead and bookmark your website to come back later.
Many thanks
Wow, looks amazing. I’d love to try it. How many people does it serve?
It should serve 12-14 people
This looks great. What do you think about substituting the ingredients for the homemade ice cream and just mixing in Oreos with vanilla ice cream to simplify it a bit?
You could definitely do that.
Can you frost this with buttercream?
I actually haven’t tried it. I’d think it’d be fine as long you work quickly so that it doesn’t melt.
Hi, can you make this cake a few days ahead of time, keep in freezer then serve?
Definitely.
I was thinking about making this for Mother’s Day. I am between two desserts and it happens to be (of all the delicious looking cakes on Pinterest!) this Oreo cake and your Snicker’s Peanut Butter cake. It looks like steps 10 and 11 came from the Snicker’s cake recipe. Thank you for your wonderful looking recipes! Any advice on which one to choose? I need a large cake but I definitely do not need two!
A little late to,the conversation but loved both the brownie based and chocolate cake based recipes. One problem, for me is that my springform pan is a 9″ one. Would either cake look too low and flat if I use that size. Don’t really have a need for an 8″ pan. Thanks
They would definitely be shorter cakes, but that might not be a big deal. It’s more a personal preference. You could also do just one layer of each, instead of two.
can you please give ingredients measurement in grams..
How many servings does this make?
I’d say 14-16 decent sized slices
I consider myself a pretty skilled home baker. I made your Smore’s Ice cream cake and just finished making the Oreo one as a gluten free version. The ice cream base is so genius , easy to make, and SO delicious!! Bravo!!
I used your chocolate cake recipe cause I had the same concerns as another commenter using frozen brownie. I have to ask what cake turntable do you use?
I know my daughter is gonna love it for her 4th birthday!! Thank you so much Lindsey
I’m so glad you enjoyed the cakes! This is the turntable I use.
Just wondering about the end of the above recipe. I says add additional caramel sauce and then top with remaining snickers…I think the end belongs to a different cake recipe! I just thought I would bring that to your attention! Thanks! I am very much looking forward to making this cake this weekend!
As long as this recipe has been here, nobody has ever pointed that out, LOL. I’ve updated it to be correct. Thanks! I hope you enjoy it!
Do you freeze the ice cream before constructing the cake layers?
No. You’ll want to make the brownie layers first, then the ice cream. It’s a no churn ice cream so it doesn’t need to be frozen first.
