Cookies and Cream Dessert



I made this dessert for our mothers day dinner that my brother and I made, it was very simple and took about 12 minutes to put together. A very easy and simple dessert but it was very good. It does melt fast though so make sure you freeze it for a good 5-6 hours before you serve it. We had some left over so my brother and I brought it over to their neighbors house, they were very happy.




1 Pkg. (18 oz.) cream cheese filled chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 gallon cookies and cream ice cream, softened
1 1/2 cups salted peanuts, coarsely chopped
2/3 cup hot fudge ice cream topping
23 cup caramel ice cream topping
1 carton (8 oz.) whipped topping.... or you can make it your self!

In a large bowl, combine cookie crumbs and butter; set aside 1 cup. Press the remaining crumb mixture into an un-greased 9x13 pan.
Spread with ice cream. Layer with peanuts. toppings and whipped cream. Sprinkle with reserved crumbs. Cover; freeze until firm.
Remove from freezer about 15 minutes before serving.




Enjoy!
