COOKIES AND CREAM ICE CREAM BARS

Category: Frozen Desserts

* 20 cookies and cream cookies
* 3 tablespoons butter, melted
* 4 cups cookie dough cream ice cream, softened
* 1/4 cup caramel ice cream topping
* 2 cups thawed whipped topping
* Shaved semi-sweet chocolate, for garnish

Double line a 9-inch square baking pan with foil, leaving 2 handles extended over the sides.

Pulse the cookies in a food processor until fine. Toss the cookies and butter in a medium bowl. Firmly press the cookie crumbs into the bottom of the prepared pan.

Carefully spread the softened ice cream across the crust. Drizzle with the caramel and top with the whipped topping. Sprinkle with a dusting of shaved chocolate. Place in the freezer for 3 hours to firm up. Slice into bars to serve. Serves 6
