For the Cake:
1 package (14.3 oz) Oreo cookies, crushed
1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted
For the Layers:
1/2 gallon (2 liters) vanilla ice cream, softened
1/2 gallon (2 liters) chocolate ice cream, softened
1 cup (250g) hot fudge sauce, warmed
1 cup (250g) caramel sauce
1 cup (125g) chopped roasted peanuts

For the Topping:
1 1/2 cups (360ml) heavy whipping cream
1/4 cup (30g) powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
Prepare the Crust: In a large bowl, mix crushed Oreo cookies with melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9×13-inch pan. Freeze for 15 minutes.
Assemble the Layers: Spread the softened vanilla ice cream evenly over the crust. Drizzle with half the hot fudge and caramel sauces. Sprinkle half of the chopped peanuts and Snickers over the top. Freeze for 1 hour or until set.
Spread the softened chocolate ice cream over the first layer. Drizzle with the remaining hot fudge and caramel sauces, then sprinkle the rest of the peanuts and Snickers pieces. Freeze for another hour.
Prepare the Whipped Topping: Whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Spread or pipe the whipped cream over the frozen cake.
Garnish with additional chopped Snickers and peanuts. Freeze for at least 2 hours or until completely firm before serving.
