I asked Alex what kind of dessert he wanted for his 17th birthday.
We had an entire costco box of snickers that was extra from Father's Day.

So he suggested that I make a snickers ice cream cake.

I found this recipe and tried it.
He said it was yummy!

It took 8 bars of snickers - I actually saved some of the ice cream mixture later because there was too much for the pie

SNICKERS® BAR PIE
2 c. Oreo cookies, crushed
1/2 c. dry roasted peanuts, chopped
1/4 c. butter, melted
8 SNICKERS® bars (2 oz.)
2 qt. vanilla ice cream
1/4 c. caramel sauce
1/4 c. chocolate sauce
Heat oven to 375 degrees. Mix cookie crumbs, peanuts and butter in 9 inch pie plate. Press into crust and bake 10 minutes. Cool. Chop candy bar into small pieces and fold into softened ice cream. Spoon into crust. Drizzle caramel and chocolate sauce over top. Freeze 4 hours.
