Mint Ice Cream Dessert



Oh... This one is yummy! It reminds me of Asphalt Pie at Wingers.

Mint Ice Cream Dessert

1/2 pkg. of Oreo Cookies, crushed (save a few for the top)
1/3 cup of butter melted
Small can of evaporated milk or half a can of a 12 oz can (the recipe is for two pans of it and they are huge so I halved it)
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup of butter cubed
1 square (1 oz) of unsweetened baking chocolate
Mint chocolate chip ice cream (softened)
1 carton of whipped topping (thawed)(small tub)

In large bowl combine oreos and 1/3 cup of melted butter. Press into a 9x13 dish to make crust (I used the back of a bowl to press it down) Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

In small sauce pan, combine the milk, sugar, butter and chocolate. Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly, about 12 minutes. Remove from heat, cool completely (or just use ready made fudge topping) :)

Spread ice cream over crust. Spoon cooled chocolate sauce over top. Freeze until firm. Spread with whipped topping. Remove from freezer 10 minutes before cutting.

I had a hard time cutting the piece and getting them out, so I sat the dish in an inch of warm water for a minute and that helped them come out easier. They used shaved chocolate but I opted for sprinkling oreo crumbs on the top instead it's easier :)
