My Special Ice Cream Birthday Cake

My son Daniel wanted an ice cream cake once for a birthday. I didn't want to pay all that money for what was actually ice cream frozen in the shape of a cake with 1 tiny layer of oreo crunch in the middle....so I talked him into letting me make him an ice cream cake and this is what I came up with.....it was a hit.....and he loved it!!!

Buy 2 quarts of soft serve ice cream at Dairy Queen, or Bops or your favorite ice cream store.
You probably won't use it all, but that is ok, you can save some for later :)
Use 2 9-inch cake pans and bake a chocolate cake or the flavor cake you enjoy..
Let cool completely, wrap , and freeze.

Line a gallon ice cream bucket with Press & Seal (or whatever bucket you want to use)
make the first layer on the bottom with the choc cake
then spoon in soft serve ice cream for a layer
On top of that-- layer crushed Reeses peanut butter cups
Next layer is the other cake
On top of the cake, layer crushed Oreos
Spoon in another layer of ice cream on top of the oreos
Finish with a layer of chunked Resses peanut butter cups on top.

Wrap all sides and top with Press & Seal and freeze .
When ready to serve , thaw for a few minutes, then unwrap and lift out of bucket
Put on a nice plate and slice....yummy!!!
