This is one of my favorite summer dessert recipes is this Frozen Caramel Toffee Ice Cream Sandwich Dessert. Watch the video showing you how to make this dessert, and then scroll to the bottom of this post and print out the recipe so you can make it at home.
Let’s get a few things straight:
- I’m not a big fan of Cool Whip or any packaged, ready-to-eat foods.
- I don’t normally take the easy way out when putting together desserts.
- I’ve come to realize that sometimes taking the easy way out works out really, really well.
With that in mind, I’ll present to you my favorite new recipe (of the 30+ recipes that I prepared on my vacation): this Frozen Caramel Toffee Ice Cream Sandwich Dessert. It’s the perfect sort of recipe for a summer party. It makes a TON… a good 24 to 36 servings to be exact, depending on how big you make your slices. This is the perhaps the easiest, most-decadent dessert you’ll ever make.
How to Make Frozen Caramel Toffee Ice Cream Sandwich Dessert:
It’s so easy to make this recipe! Buy one of those extra-deep 13×9-inch disposable foil pans (it’s easiest, and it’s the perfect depth). Place a layer of ice cream sandwiches in the bottom. Cover them with Cool Whip. Drizzle with caramel and chocolate syrup. Sprinkle with toffee bits. Freeze for a bit… then repeat: Another layer of ice cream sandwiches, Cool Whip, and syrups.
Top the dessert with crushed Heath or Skor bars. Freeze several hours until firm enough to slice. We slice this up and put it into plastic cups for easy serving. Put all of the cups on a large tray and pass them around to guests, who will snatch them up eagerly!
This simple, simple Frozen Caramel Toffee Ice Cream Sandwich Dessert is always a huge hit. It’s delicious, decadent and impressive enough to serve up at a party. The first time I served this recipe at a party, my guests asked about how to make it it. You should have seen the looks of amazement on their faces when I explained the process of putting it together. People love easy recipes like this!

Notes
- Cover leftovers with plastic wrap, and keep in the freezer.
I’m curious….you said you serve these in plastic cups.. What kind of cups do you use? It seems like it would be hard to place the tall serving into a cup! I would like to put them in individual cups too. It would make it soooo much easier to serve! And so much cuter than a dish.
I believe I just used the short, clear plastic cups that you can find in your grocery store!
Why didn’t you use real whipped cream? It freezes well.
You can certainly do that!
I need this in my life asap!! So good.
Oh my word! You will want to make this over and over again. So addicting after just one bite.
