I'm trying to come up with some unique and creative ideas for desserts at my wedding. We're getting married in the summer so I thought our guests would appreciate and enjoy some ice cream desserts. I found this one that uses Oreo cookies, it's YUMMY.

Ingredients:
24 Oreo cookies, crushed
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/2 gallon ice cream, softened
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, softened
16 ounces chocolate syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla
8 ounces whipped topping
1 cup pecans or 1 cup walnuts

1 Mix cookie crumbs with melted butter. 2 Press into 9x13" pan. 3 Freeze 30 minutes. 4 Top with softened ice cream. 5 Freeze another 30 minutes. 6 Make a syrup with the condensed milk, chocolate syrup and butter by combining in saucepan and bringing to a boil. 7 Simmer 5 minutes. 8 Stir in the vanilla. 9 Pour on top of ice cream. 10 Freeze another 30 minutes. 11 Spread Cool-Whip over the top. 12 Sprinkle with chopped nuts. 13 About 30 minutes before serving, place in refrigerator to help ease in serving.
