Instructions
- Arrange Ice Cream Sandwiches: Place 8 of the chocolate ice cream sandwiches in a single layer in a 9 x 13 inch baking dish. Trim some ice cream sandwiches if necessary to fit the space evenly.
- Spread Whipped Topping: Evenly spread half of the thawed whipped topping over the first layer of ice cream sandwiches, ensuring a smooth and consistent layer.
- Add Cherry Pie Filling: Spoon half of the cherry pie filling evenly over the whipped topping layer, distributing it carefully for balanced flavor throughout.
- Add Second Ice Cream Layer: Place the remaining 8 ice cream sandwiches on top of the cherry pie filling layer to create the second layer of the cake.
- Spread Remaining Whipped Topping: Spread the remaining whipped topping over the top layer of ice cream sandwiches, covering them completely and smoothly.
- Top with Remaining Cherry Pie Filling: Spoon the remaining cherry pie filling over the whipped topping layer, spreading it evenly for the final fruit topping layer.
- Freeze to Set: Cover the dish and place it in the freezer for at least 3 hours to allow the layers to set firmly together.
- Add Chocolate Sauce: Just before serving, drizzle chocolate sauce over the top of the cake to enhance flavor and presentation.
- Serve: Slice the cake into portions using a sharp knife and serve immediately for best texture and taste.
