Ice Cream Pizza

This Ice Cream Pizza recipe is an easy copycat of the classic Dairy Queen Treatzza Pizza! It has a crisp Oreo cookie base that's topped with creamy vanilla ice cream and garnished with hot fudge and M&Ms.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup thick hot fudge divided - I use Mrs. Richardson's
  • 3 cups finely crushed pea-size and smaller Oreo cookies, from about 24 regular Oreos
  • about ⅔ of a 1.5-quart container of vanilla ice cream softened slightly (Use the whole container to make a thicker ice cream layer!)
  • ⅓ to ½ cup chopped m&m candies or just use mini M&Ms!

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Prep: Line a 9” springform pan with parchment paper and lightly spray it with nonstick spray. Then wrap the outside of the pan in a layer of heavy-duty foil.
  2. For the Oreo crust: Add ¾ cup of the hot fudge to a large microwave-safe bowl and heat it for 15 seconds, then give it a stir. You want it just barely warm. Repeat for another 15 seconds if needed.
  3. Add the crushed Oreo cookies to the warm hot fudge and stir to combine.
  4. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan. This will be kinda sticky. See my tip in the Notes below.
  5. For the ice cream layer: Spread the slightly softened vanilla ice cream over the Oreo crust and smooth it into an even layer. Place the ice cream pizza in the freezer for 2 hours, or until the ice cream is set.
  6. For the garnish: Heat the remaining ¼ cup hot fudge in a small microwave-safe bowl until just barely pourable. Drizzle the hot fudge over the ice cream and then sprinkle with M&Ms.
  7. To finish: Transfer the ice cream pizza to the freezer and chill again for 3 more hours, or until the ice cream is completely frozen.
  8. Run a knife around the perimeter of the pan to loosen the pizza from the pan sides and then unlock the springform pan and remove the sides. Transfer the pizza to a serving platter, then slice immediately, and enjoy!

Notes

  • Tip for pressing in the Oreo/fudge crust: The "pizza crust" of crushed Oreos and fudge sauce is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. But it's also kinda sticky as you're pressing it into the pan. I've found that it helps to spray the back side of a large spoon with non-stick cooking spray and use that to press in the Oreo mixture, spraying the spoon as needed. If the spoon starts to get a build-up of the Oreo mixture, just grab a new spoon, spray it, and continue on.
