Directions

  • Open the jar of peanut butter, place into microwave oven, and microwave on low power for about 30 seconds at a time, until the peanut butter is warm and spreads easily. Spread half the peanut butter over the layer of ice cream sandwiches.

  • Mix the instant chocolate pudding mix into the whipped topping; spread half the mixture over the peanut butter layer.

  • Spread half the peanut butter cups over the whipped topping layer.

  • Remove tops of the hot fudge and caramel topping jars, and microwave on low power for about 10 seconds at a time just until the toppings are warmed and liquid. Drizzle half of the fudge and caramel sauces over the peanut butter cups.

  • Repeat the layers, starting with the remaining ice cream sandwiches, followed by remaining peanut butter, whipped topping mix, peanut butter cups, hot fudge sauce, and caramel sauce.

  • Freeze the dessert until solidly frozen, 1 to 2 hours.

Cook's Note

When I make this, I do not add the dry chocolate pudding mix to the second half of the frozen topping. This is just a preference for me because I like the appearance of the white color on top. This is also difficult to cut once it's frozen...may have something to do with the frozen peanut butter? Will need a good knife or strong metal spatula!

Very good. I have to admit to some tweaking . . . I used mini ice cream sandwiches - one layer - my 9x13 did not have room for a second layer. I also cut the sandwiches to fit the pan. I did not bother with the chocolate pudding mix in the Cool Whip - and it was not missed - at all. I used nearly 2x the peanut butter called for (in 2 layers), all the hot fudge and caramel sauce (one layer, each), and mini Reese's cups (one layer). I did the first layers as called for (not measuring the peanut butter), then, as I saw I was running out of room, I did another layer of peanut butter and topped with the last layer of Cool Whip. This got raves at a rehearsal dinner (= [I put it in the fridge when we started serving dinner, so it would soften a bit, after reading Frauline's note.] Oh! It took one box and a few extra of the mini sandwiches for the single layer - 18 mini's to a box . . . Read More

We loved this but it's HUGE. Next time I make it I will only do half the layers or make a smaller pan. It's delicious! Read More

Really good and pretty easy. It's just not cheap but that's ok for special occasions. I made it for my son's 12th birthday and he kept saying "My mom's really good at making ice cream cakes" which was nice to hear. Read More

OMG! DELISH! This was gone super fast. I didn't think it would be that good because I am not a huge fan of the ice cream sandwiches but it was. Read More

Instead of dealing with preparing peanut butter cups I chose to use Reese's flavored choc syrup the "Magic shell" kind. It added more texture and stability to my lasagna! Of COURSE we're making this again! My 8yo son did most of the layering. Read More
