Oreo Ice Cream Cake Tips
How do you keep an ice cream cake from melting?
The best way to keep an ice cream cake from melting is to freeze it throughout the assembly process. Popping your cake in the freezer every few minutes or after every step helps to keep it solid. When transferring your prepared ice cream cake, travel with it in an insulated cooler and with multiple ice packs. Learn
how to freeze anything with this handy guide.
Can I put ice cream cake in the fridge?
No—You’ll want to keep your Oreo ice cream cake in the freezer, then let it stand at room temperature 10 minutes before serving. Oh, and if you bought extra cookies? Put them to good use in these other
Oreo recipes.
What variations of this ice cream cake recipe can I try?
If you’re looking to switch things up, try using an ice cream flavor other than vanilla. Anything goes—coffee, strawberry, mint chip or cookie dough! And instead of sprinkling the top with just cookies, add your favorite chopped nuts, fruit, sprinkles or mini candies. Maraschino cherries are also a fun garnish to add once the Oreo ice cream cake is ready to serve. Or, check out our other
