I'm a retired home economics teacher and have quite a collection of recipes from my classes. My students really like this refreshing frozen dessert made with ice cream and sandwich cookies. - Mrs. Robert Lamb Daleville, Indiana

Ingredients

  • 2 packages (15-1/2 ounces each) Oreo cookies, crushed
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1 can (12 ounces) evaporated milk
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, cubed
  • 2 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
  • 1 gallon mint chocolate chip ice cream, softened
  • 1 carton (16 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • Shaved chocolate

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the cookie crumbs and butter. Press into two 13x9-in. dishes. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine the milk, sugar, butter and chocolate. Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly, about 12 minutes. Remove from the heat; cool completely.
  3. Spread ice cream over each crust. Spoon cooled chocolate sauce over top; evenly spread to cover. Freeze until firm. Spread with whipped topping. Desserts may be frozen for up to 2 months. Remove from freezer 10 minutes before cutting. Garnish with shaved chocolate.
