Steps:
- In a food processor or blender, pulse the whole Oreos into a fine crumb. Stir the cookie crumbs and melted butter together, then press into a 9×13 pan. (No need to grease the pan prior.) Make sure it is very tightly packed-I use the back of a spatula to firmly press it in. Freeze for 15 minutes.
- During that time, place the softened chocolate ice cream in a bowl and give it a good stir to rid any frozen lumps. You want a nice smooth, soft ice cream. Spread it on top of the frozen crust. Freeze for 15-30 minutes. (Closer to 30 minutes is ideal.)
- During that time, place the 2nd ice cream flavor into a bowl and stir it until it is smooth and very soft. Carefully spread on top of the chocolate ice cream. Freeze for 15-30 minutes. (Closer to 30 minutes is ideal.)
- Make sure the hot fudge is spreadable consistency. You may have to slightly heat it if using store-bought. Spread it on top of the ice cream as best you can. Because it is not as cold as the ice cream layer, the two will slightly mix together as you spread. That's ok. Freeze for 15-30 minutes. (Closer to 30 minutes is ideal.)
- Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat the heavy cream, confectioners' sugar, and vanilla on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 4-5 minutes. Spread on top of hot fudge layer, then top with sprinkles. Cover with aluminum foil and freeze for at least 12 hours before serving (and up to a few days).
- Use a very sharp knife to cut, making sure you are cutting into the crust. Keep leftovers in the freezer.

Tips:
- Prepare ahead: For best results, make the ice cream layers and let them chill overnight before assembling the bars.
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your ice cream bars will taste. Use full-fat cream and milk, and choose fresh, ripe fruit.
- Don't overmix the ice cream layers: Overmixing will make the ice cream grainy. Mix each layer just until it is combined.
- Chill the ice cream bars before serving: This will help them to set properly and make them easier to eat.
- Garnish with your favorite toppings: Before serving, you can garnish the ice cream bars with whipped cream, sprinkles, chocolate chips, or nuts.
Conclusion:
Five-layer ice cream bars are a delicious and refreshing treat that is perfect for any occasion. With a variety of flavors and textures, these bars are sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a sweet and easy dessert, give these ice cream bars a try.
