Ingredients
- 1 pint Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream , let it sit out to soften a bit before using
- 26 Oreo cookies
- 4 Tbsp Butter
- 2 c Semisweet Chocolate Chips
- 1 1/2 c Heavy Cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a food processor puree the Oreo cookies until they are a fine crumble.
- Melt the butter and add it to the cookie crumbs. Stir until the crumbs are moist and then press the mixture into a 9-inch tart pan covering the bottom and up the sides.
- Bake the tart crust for 7-9 minutes or until crust is firm.
- Let the tart cool to room temperature them place it in the freezer for 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes remove the crust from the freezer and spread softened mint chocolate chip ice cream over it evenly filling the tart about halfway to 3/4 of the way up.
- Place the tart back in the freezer while you make the ganache.
- Heat the heavy cream in the microwave for 1-2 minutes or until it begins to bubble.
- Remove and pour over the chocolate immediately, stirring until the mixture is smooth.
- Keep stirring to let the mixture cool slightly but not too long because you want the ganache to pour easily.
- Remove the tart from the freezer and pour the ganache over it using a knife to smooth out the top.
- Place the tart back in the freezer until ready to serve or at least 30 minutes.
- Enjoy!
