I needed an easy dessert recipe for small group a few weeks ago. I started looking through some of the recipe magazines I have reviewed for something summer-y. I came across a recipe for an ice cream sandwich cake-which was rather complicated BUT that reminded me of the cake I used to make a few years ago. I searched my blog and realized I had never shared this easy summer recipe with you.

This looks so good and easy, too. My sister-in-law makes an ice cream sandwich cake that is sort of like this but it has chopped up candy bars (like butterfingers or snickers) on the top. She also makes hers in a 9×13 pan. Pinning this so I have the recipe – I think my kids will love it.
