Hot Fudge Ice Cream Bar Dessert

You Only Need 30 Minutes & 5 Ingredients to Make This Frozen Treat!
I’ve never really considered myself to be a big fan of ice cream because it’s not usually my first choice when I want something sweet. However, there are certain frozen treats I just love, like Drumsticks, Creamsicles and ice cream sandwiches. So I was especially excited to find this amazingly easy dessert recipe for ice cream cake on Allrecipes.com. It’s made with some of my favorite things…peanut butter, frozen whipped topping, and ice cream sandwiches! I know that the summer is a few months away, but I don’t think there’s ever a wrong time to eat this cake. You can even make a lower fat version using products like The Skinny Cow or Breyers who both make a low fat ice cream sandwich. The best part is that this cold, deliciously rich treat takes only 30 minutes to prepare and requires only 1 hour to firm up. I know you’re going to love this!
