Hot Fudge Oreo Cupcakes

My hubs turned 25 on Friday!  Boy was it fun to spoil him!  I surprised him with this AH-mazing dessert for after dinner!  I really wanted to make this yummy dish for his birthday.  It's full of ice cream, oreo cookie crust, homemade hot fudge and cool whip all together in this delightful frozen cupcake.  It's like Heaven in your mouth.  WOW!

take a peek...

Let's get started with this ---

plop some foil baking cups into the cupcake pan.

You will need 1 bag of Oreo Cookies

Put the Oreo's in a Ziploc baggie and grab a rolling pin

Smash, roll, thump... whatever it takes to make chunky MUD (the best mud you'll ever eat)

Add 1/4 cup of melted butter to that MUD!

Toss butter and crumbs together until mixed well

 

Press crumbs firmly in bottom of cup.

I used about 2 tablespoons per cup.

Reserve at least 1 cup of the crumbs for later.



 Plop a scoop of ice cream into each cup.

I used Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream, but you can use any flavor Ice Cream you like!

Take a spoon, and flatten each ball of Ice Cream.

As it softens it gets very easy to do.

Sprinkle some of the leftover Oreo crumbs on top.

Place about 2 tablespoons of cool whip on top of the Oreo ice cream mixture.

Now place that cupcake pan in your freezer.

Let them sit for awhile and shiver while we make

make the Homemade Hot Fudge Sauce.

 

Let’s begin . . .

You will need these 4 ingredients.

1. A stick of butter

2. 1 cup of choc chips

3. 1 tsp vanilla

4. 1 can of sweetened condensed milk

Mix together over low heat in a saucepan, until melted and combined.

I used Milk Chocolate chips – you could use a darker chip if you like.

Once the Hot Fudge is all creamy and melted together.

Pour about 1/2 cup of it into a little baggie.

Let that bag of Hot Fudge cool for about 10 minutes in the fridge.

You don’t want it Hot!

 

 

Once your Hot Fudge has cooled:

GO GRAB YOUR FROZEN TREATS FROM THE FREEZER.

Grab a little pair of scissors

Snip . . . just a little teeny snip off end of Ziploc baggie and then

drizzle that yummy Hot Fudge over the top of the Frozen Cream.

Put a few more of those Reserved Oreo Crumbs on the top of the Hot Fudge.

 

Place the pan uncovered in the Freezer for several hours.

When you are ready to serve them,

simply . . .

Let soften ever so slightly,

Remove the paper liners and eat!

Put remainder of fudge into container for later use!

 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DEAN!
