Show moreFor the indecisive sweet tooth who can’t choose between cookies, cake, or ice cream — this is for you. We’d warn you to dig in quickly before it melts, but we can’t imagine it will be an issue.
You will need
Serves 8
- 4 packets/sleeves of Oreo-style cookies
- 1/3 cup coconut oil, melted
- 2 tubs Over The Moo Dream Team Cookies ‘n Cream ice cream
- Chocolate sauce*, to serve
Directions

Step 1
For the cookie base, dump 3 packets of biscuits (cream filling and all) in a food processor, and pulse into a coarse crumb. Add the coconut oil and combine with a spoon.
-
Step 2
Press the mixture into the bottom of a 20 cm spring form pan. Be firm! Freeze it for 20 minutes, or until set.
-
Step 3
Pull the Over The Moo Cookies ‘n Cream ice cream out of the freezer and allow to soften.
-
Step 4
Spread the softened ice cream evenly over the cake base and return to the freezer to set for 3 hours (or overnight if possible).
-
Step 5
To serve, let the cake sit at room temp for 4 minutes then run a knife around the inside of the cake pan to loosen it before gently opening the spring form.
-
Step 6
Roughly chop the remaining packet of cookies and sprinkle onto the cake for decoration. Drizzle with chocolate sauce and enjoy!
Hot tip!
*Make your own chocolate sauce by combining 1/2 cup coconut cream, 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa or cacao powder, a pinch of salt and 2-3 tablespoons brown sugar or maple syrup, to taste, in a saucepan over very low heat. Whisk until smooth and creamy (2-3 minutes) then remove from heat and stir in 2 teaspoons coconut oil. Whisk until combined, then drizzle!
Alternatively, squeeze over a generous amount of a vegan store-bought sauce like Cottee’s Thick ‘N’ Rich Chocolate Topping.
