Servings: persons

1
Line an 8-inch round baking pan with foil.
2
Mix together cookie crumbs and melted butter until evenly combined. Press into the bottom of the prepared pan.
3
Prepare chocolate sauce by placing the icing sugar, semi-sweet chocolate chips, butter and evaporated milk in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Simmer for 7 minutes, until slightly thickened (it will thicken more as it cools).
4
Cool completely, whisking occasionally to prevent a skin from forming.
5
To prepare the cake, top the cookie crumbs in the pan with half of the ice cream, peanuts and chocolate sauce. Repeat layers. Freezing in between if necessary.
6
Once fully assembled, freeze until solid (about 2 hours).
7
To serve: loosen foil from sides of pan (warming up with hands if necessary) and lift out. Peel away foil; slice and serve.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
