How do you soften ice cream for a cake?

This is so easy. Just let the ice cream sit on the counter to soften. Simple!

First, place the ice cream on the counter to soften.

Next, take all the oreo cookies except for about 12. Place them in a gallon size freezer bag and pound them with a mallet or a rolling pin to coarsely crush them.

Lay the cookies in the bottom of a 9×13 baking pan, spreading them out evenly.

Place the remaining Oreos cookies in the freezer bag and crush them. Set aside.

Once the ice cream has softened spoon the entire half gallon over the crushed oreos cookies. Spread it out evenly.

Now you want to place in the freezer for about an hour or until the ice cream begins to harden.

Remove from the freezer and spread out the cool whip across the top.

Top with oreos cookies.

Place back in the freezer and freezer for at least 2 hours until the cake has hardened.
