So Memorial Day is just around the corner. I will be spending it at the lake with friends and BBQ'n it up and playing some volleyball. I think it will be fun to bake something so I found a recipe I think will be perfect.

1 box (1 pound) individually wrapped chocolate creme filled cakes (8 per package) such as Suzy Q's
2 cups (1 pint) of your favorite ice cream
1/2 teaspoon mint extract, if using mint icecream
2 cups frozen nondairy whipped topping, thawed
DIRECTIONS
Line 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 x 2 5/8 inch loaf pan with plastic wrap, with plastic overhanging edges. Remove wrapping from 8 cakes. Press 4 cakes into bottom of pan, so the long sides of the individual cakes are parallel with short end of loaf pan
Place loaf pan in freezer while softening ice cream. Let ice cream stand at room temperature for 10 minutes, stirring until consistency of cream cheese. Once ice cream is thickly spreadable, remove pan from freezer. Spread ice cream over top of cakes and to edges of pan
Press remaining 4 cakes gently on top of ice cream, arranging in same manner as first layer. Tightly cover top of cake with overhanging plastic wrap. Freeze until fairly firm, about 3 hours
Fold mint extract, if using, into thawed whipped topping. Once cake feels firm to touch, uncover top of cake. Invert onto platter, remove pan and plastic wrap. Frost sides and top of cake with thawed whipped topping
Refreeze for at least 2 hours or overnight. Thinly slice and serve
Enjoy and have a wonderful weekend :D
