• Meanwhile, soften 1 quart of ice cream in microwave or on countertop. After crust has chilled, spread softened ice cream over fudge layer. Freeze 30 minutes.
• Scoop remaining quart of ice cream into balls and arrange over spread ice cream layer. Freeze until firm, 4 hours or overnight. To serve, garnish with remainder of fudge topping, whipped cream and cherries.

Steps:

• Line a 9X3" pan with aluminum foil, with an overhang of 2".
• Line the bottom of the pan with a layer of the cookies, breaking a few to fit into the edges, if necessary.
• Spread a layer of ice cream over the cookies.
• Repeat making 2 more layers, or however many your pan will accommodate, ending with a top layer of cookies.
• Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil, and freeze until needed.
• 15 minutes before serving, remove the cake from the freezer.
• Whip the cream.
• Grab the overhanging foil on the sides of the pan, and lift out the ice cream cake. Place it on a serving platter.
• Decorate the top with whipped cream, and place the strawberries randomly on top to make a design.
• Cut into squares with a sharp knife, and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
• In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar with an electric hand mixer.
• Add the eggs, one at a time, and beat until incorporated. Add the vanilla and beat until combined.
• Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Beat until combined.
• Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Place a portion of dough between 2 sheets of parchment paper and roll out into a circle that is about 11 inches (27 cm) wide. Using a 10-inch (25 cm) springform pan as your guide, cut a 10-inch (25 cm) circle out of the dough.
• Use a 3-inch (8-cm) ramekin as a guide to cut out the center, leaving a doughnut-shaped cookie. Reserve the dough scraps and transfer the cookie on the parchment paper to a baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough portions.
• Chill the cookie dough in the freezer for 10 minutes.
• Bake the cookies (in batches, if necessary) for 12-14 minutes, until crisp around the edges. Let cool completely.
• Reroll the dough scraps and use a cookie cutter to cut out 24 1½-inch-wide (4-cm) cookies. Transfer the cookies to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and chill in the freezer for 10 minutes.
• Bake the cookies for 7 minutes, until crisp. Let cool completely.
• Make the whipped cream: Add the heavy cream to a large bowl. With an electric hand mixer, whip the cream until soft peaks form, then add the sweetened condensed milk. Continue whipping until stiff peaks form. Transfer to a piping bag or zip-top bag fitted with a large round tip.
• Carefully place one of the large cookies on a serving platter. Pipe a layer of whipped cream on top of the cookie. Repeat with the remaining cookies and whipped cream, finishing with a layer of cream. Reserve any leftover whipped cream for sandwich cookie garnish.
• Chill the cake in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
• After the cake has chilled, make sandwich cookies for decoration. Pipe a dollop of whipped cream onto a small cookie and sandwich with another cookie. Make 9 more cookie sandwiches. Place the remaining cookies in a plastic bag and use a rolling pin to smash into crumbs.
• Arrange the sandwich cookies evenly around the top edge of the cake. Sprinkle the cookie crumbs over the exposed whipped cream.
• Slice and serve.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Line a 9-by-13-inch pan with two layers of plastic wrap, leaving a few inches of overhang on all sides. Open all of the ice cream containers. Place one 1 1/2 quart (or 3 pints) on the counter and let soften until it resembles thick cake batter, 5 to 10 minutes; you'll use this ice cream first. Place the other containers in the refrigerator to soften while you build the first half of the cake. (Ice cream will reach the desired consistency in the refrigerator in 20 to 30 minutes.)
• Scatter the crushed cookies in a thin, even layer across the bottom of the pan. Spoon the first softened container of ice cream over the cookies and spread into an even layer. Press down as you go to adhere the ice cream to the cookies. If at any point the ice cream is melting to liquid, pop the cake and ice cream in the freezer to firm to a spoonable consistency.
• Place the pan in the freezer while you unwrap the sandwiches. Top the ice cream with a layer of ice cream sandwiches, cutting some as needed to fill the layer to the edges.
• Spoon the remaining ice cream over the top and spread into an even layer. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, at least 2 hours or up to 1 week.
• To serve, use the plastic overhang to remove the cake from the pan. Cut into squares or rectangles and serve with a drizzle of hot fudge or Magic Shell. If you're finding the cake too solid to cut, don't wait for it to soften: Warm your knife by running it under hot water and wiping it dry between cuts.
