CHERRY CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM CAKE: Creamy, rich, and full of flavor!

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
• 1 pint cherry ice cream, softened
• 1 cup fresh cherries, pitted and halved
• 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup whipped cream
• 1/4 cup chocolate sauce

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Prepare the crust – In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until well mixed.

Bake – Press the mixture into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes until lightly golden, then allow it to cool completely.

Prepare the filling – In another bowl, gently fold the softened cherry ice cream with the fresh cherries and mini chocolate chips. Spread this mixture into the cooled crust.

Freeze – Freeze for at least 4 hours, or until the ice cream is firm.

Garnish and serve – Just before serving, top with whipped cream, fresh cherries, additional mini chocolate chips, and drizzle with chocolate sauce.

Serve and enjoy.
