So yesterday someone told me Trader Joe's has Cookie Butter ice cream. I was so excited and the first thing that came to mind was a Cookie Butter ice cream cake, with a Speculoos cookie crust, drizzled with Cookie Butter! Ran out to TJs this morning before work and had 30 minutes to make this and it was more than enough time. Super easy, fast AND involves cookie butter?! Count me in.
-1 quart Cookie Butter ice cream
-1 tub Cool Whip, thawed (I used fat free, but this won't make a difference)
-18 Speculoos Cookies (plus some extra to garnish, optional)
-2 tbs butter
-1 tbs cookie butter, for drizzle (optional)
- 9-inch springform pan
-Food processor
-1 medium bowl
-1 large bowl
-Large spoon for mixing
Instructions:
Take 18 Speculoos Cookies and crush them in the food processor until fine, then pout into medium bowl. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter and mix them well with the cookies; press onto bottom of 9-inch springform pan
In a large bowl, combine 1 quart of ice cream with 1 tub of Cool Whip, mix well. Then pour into the springform pan
Put 1 tablespoon of Cookie Butter in a Ziploc bag and put it in the microwave for 20 seconds, or until melted. Drizzle onto the top of the cake, along with crushed Speculoos Cookies
Freeze for at least 4 hours and serve immediately after it's out of the freezer (it melts quickly)
The final product! Enjoy :)
