Oreo Ice Cream Dessert

Oreo Ice Cream Dessert is the perfect summertime treat.  Three ingredients, no-bake, and can be made ahead of time...how easy is that?

Oreo Ice Cream Dessert

1 (1.75 qt.) carton vanilla ice cream

1 (14.3 oz.) package regular Oreo cookies (not Double Stuff)

1 (8 oz.) container whipped topping, thawed

Soften ice cream in a very large bowl.  Crush entire bag of Oreo cookies using a food processor, or you could also place them in a large zipper seal bag and crush them with a rolling pin.  Reserve 1 cup of Oreo crumbs.  When ice cream has softened, stir in the remaining Oreo crumbs.  Spread in a 9x13 baker and freeze.  When frozen, spread the container of whipped topping on top, and then sprinkle with desired amount of reserved Oreo crumbs.  Freeze until ready to serve.  Allow to sit out for 5-10 minutes before serving.  Warm a knife with hot water to make cutting the dessert easier.
