Preparation Steps

  • Line the bottom of a 9 inch springform pan with aluminum foil, wrapping it around the removable bottom of the pan.
  • To make the crust, combine the melted butter and Oreo crumbs and stir until combined.
  • Add the crumb mixture to the springform pan and press into the bottom in an even layer. Set aside.
  • Whip the heavy whipping cream and powdered sugar on high speed until stiff peaks form. Set whipped cream aside.
  • Beat cream cheese on medium-high speed for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.
  • Slowly add the sugar to the cream cheese while mixing.
  • Add the Irish cream liqueur and vanilla extract and beat until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides to make sure everything is well combined.
  • Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.
  • Spread the ice cream evenly into the pan over the crust, then set in the freezer.
  • Whip the heavy whipping cream, Irish cream liqueur, powdered sugar and cocoa powder on high speed until stiff peaks form.
  • Spread the mousse into an even layer on top of the ice cream.
  • Cover the cake and freeze until firm, 4-6 hours or overnight.
  • Once cake has set, remove it from the springform pan and place it on a serving plate.
  • Make the whipped cream topping by beating the heavy whipping cream, Irish cream liqueur and powdered sugar on high speed until stiff peaks form.
  • Put the whipped cream in a piping bag fitted with a closed star tip. Pipe the whipped cream around the outer edge of the cake.
  • Drizzle the cake with chocolate sauce and chocolate sprinkles if desired. Then freeze until ready to serve. Allow cake to sit out for about 15 minutes before serving.
  • Will keep up to 3 months in the freezer.

Notes

This cake can be a stunning centerpiece for your celebrations. For best texture, allow the cake to sit 15 minutes at room temperature before slicing. Store leftovers tightly wrapped in the freezer up to 3 months.
