Cheater’s Quick Cookies and Cream
When I was growing up, my grandmother made homemade peach ice cream. It was cold and creamy with chunks of fresh peaches throughout it. We all took turns with the crank; I guess nobody had heard of electric ice cream freezers then.
This is definitely not homemade ice cream, but for a cheaters recipe, it’s pretty darn good. At my house, everybody loves Oreo cookies and everybody loves ice cream (my daughter in particular), so this is a favorite summer dessert. It’s easy, too.
Cookies and Cream Frozen Dessert
1 16 oz. package of Oreos, coarsely crumbled
½ gallon of “homemade style” vanilla ice cream, slightly softened
8 oz. of Cool Whip
Combine the Oreos and the softened ice cream until blended. Fold in the Cool Whip. Spoon the mixture into a 13×9 pan. Cover and freeze until firm.
It’s not even June yet, and it’s already in the 90s here. This is the perfect dessert to help everybody cool off a little.
