Ingredients
Scale

- 1 quart strawberry ice cream
- 1 quart vanilla ice cream
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions
- Prepare Crust: In a medium bowl, combine crushed chocolate cookies and melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Freeze for 15 minutes to set.
- Ice Cream: Allow the strawberry ice cream to soften slightly. Spread it evenly over the cookie crust. Sprinkle a layer of sliced strawberries over the ice cream. Freeze for 30 minutes to set.
- Vanilla Layer: Allow the vanilla ice cream to soften slightly. Spread it evenly over the strawberry layer. Freeze for at least 1 hour or until the ice cream is firm.
