Ingredients

• 2 cups Heavy cream
• 1 can (14 ounces) Sweetened condensed milk
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 12 pieces Chocolate sandwich cookies (e.g., Oreos)
• 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 0 as needed Whipped cream (optional, for garnish)
• 0 as needed Chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, unsweetened cocoa powder, and vanilla extract until smooth and combined.

Step 2

In another bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to whip the heavy cream on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. This should take about 3-4 minutes.

Step 3

Gently fold the whipped cream into the cocoa mixture using a rubber spatula until fully incorporated and no streaks remain. Be careful not to deflate the mixture.

Step 4

Crush the chocolate sandwich cookies into small pieces using a food processor or by placing them in a zip-top bag and crushing them with a rolling pin.

Step 5

In a freezer-safe container or loaf pan, layer half of the chocolate ice cream mixture, followed by a layer of crushed cookies. Repeat with the remaining ice cream mixture and cookies, finishing with a smooth layer of ice cream on top.

Step 6

Cover the container with plastic wrap or an airtight lid and place in the freezer for at least 6 hours or overnight until firm.

Step 7

To make the chocolate ganache topping, heat the semi-sweet chocolate chips and butter in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth and fully melted (approximately 1-2 minutes). Let the ganache cool slightly.

Step 8

Remove the frozen dessert from the freezer and drizzle or spread the ganache over the top. Optionally, garnish with whipped cream and chocolate shavings before serving.

Step 9

Let the dessert sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly before scooping or slicing and serving.
