Ingredients

Scale

1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup honey

2/3 cup granulated sugar

1 stick (8 tablespoons) Land O Lakes® Salted Butter

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

salt

1 pint chocolate ice cream

1 pint coffee chip ice cream

1 pint vanilla ice cream

18–20 sheets graham crackers

1 cup heavy cream

1 tablespoon powdered sugar

Instructions

Begin by preparing the fudge sauce: In a medium saucepan, combine cocoa powder, heavy cream, honey, granulated sugar, butter, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture is smooth and thickened. Remove from heat and let cool.
In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup of heavy cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form. Set aside.
To assemble the cake, place a layer of graham crackers at the bottom of a cake pan. Spread half of the chocolate ice cream over the crackers, followed by half of the coffee chip ice cream, then half of the vanilla ice cream.
Drizzle half of the fudge sauce over the ice cream layers. Repeat the layers with graham crackers, the remaining ice creams, and the remaining fudge sauce. Top with the whipped cream.
Cover and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm. Before serving, let the cake sit at room temperature for 10 minutes to soften slightly. Slice and enjoy!

Notes

For added flavor, feel free to mix in some chocolate chips or nuts between the layers. This cake is best enjoyed on the day it’s made but can be stored in the freezer for up to a week.
