Directions
-
Step 1
Place the entire package of cookies in the base of a food processor and pulse until the cookies are coarse crumbs.
-
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cookie crumbs and melted butter. Stir to combine. In a 9-inch pie pan, or springform pan, evenly press chocolate crumbs firmly in the bottom of a pie plate. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the freezer to set, about one hour. Once the crust is set, spread a layer of fudge sauce on the crust. Return to the freezer until firm, about 30 minutes. -
Step 3
Spoon softened ice cream into springform pan, on top of chocolate crust. Smooth ice cream with a spatula, cover and return to the freezer to set fully (3 to 4 hours).
-
Step 4
Combine chocolate chips and Crystal Creamery heavy cream in a heatproof metal bowl, and place over a boiling pot of water—stirring often to allow the chocolate chips to fully melt. Remove from heat. Stir in the butter, whisking until melted and chocolate is fully combined. -
Step 5
Allow chocolate ganache to cool to room temperature. Spread ganache over the top of frozen ice cream with a spatula in an even layer. Top with crushed cookies, peppermint and chocolate shavings and return to freezer. Let set overnight.
