Notes
Storage:
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months. You can also cover leftovers in plastic wrap and foil. When ready to serve again, simply remove and let the cake come to temperature for 3-5 minutes, and enjoy.
Tips:
This is a great make-ahead dessert: Assemble the whole ice cream cake up to 1-2 days in advance, store in the freezer covered or wrapped, and let it sit on the counter for a few minutes before you're ready to slice and serve again.
Warm the peanut butter and fudge slightly for easier drizzling.
Cut sandwiches to fully cover each layer for a clean look.
For cleaner slices, use a sharp knife and wipe between cuts.
