Oreo Cookie Freakout


This week's recipe exchange, sponsored by Overwhelmed With Joy, is the dessert edition...yummy! Click on the pic above to link to other recipes for this week.

This recipe is really easy to make and great for kids and family-friendly events. My mother-in-law gave me this recipe YEARS ago...not sure of its original source.


Ingredients:
1 large package Oreo cookies
1/2 gallon vanilla ice cream, softened
1 can Hershey's syrup
1 can cocktail peanuts
1 container Cool Whip

  1. Crush the Oreo cookies and line a 13x9 galss dish with the crumbs, saving a few for the topping.
  2. Spoon the softened ice cream on top of the cookie crumbs and smooth out.
  3. Pour on the chocolate syrup and sprinkle with nuts.
  4. Freeze several hours until firm.
  5. Add Cool Whip on top and sprinkle with remaining cookies.

You need to keep this frozen until a little before you serve it. Enjoy!
