For the ice cream cake:
For the spooky topping:
Instructions:
1. Line the entire pan with ice cream sandwiches (6 should do the trick if using a square glass pan)
2. Top sandwiches with ice cream flavor of your choice (I choose cookie dough!)
3. Place the remaining ice cream sandwiches on top of the ice cream layer
4. Spread Cool Whip topping on top of cake
5. Crumble Oreo cookies to make “dirt” and cover the Cool Whip topping entirely
6. Stick gummy worms all around the cake to make them look like they are coming out of the “dirt”
7. If using the downloadable gravestones: Cut out and tape to a toothpick. Stick them around the cake to finish your spooky graveyard!
8. Turn on your scary movie, get under the covers, and dig in!
