Three shades of ice cream give a dramatic effect n a luscious and easy to make dessert that's great for kids of all ages. WE used chocolate,strawberry and vanilla, but why not choose your own favorite flavors? Add a variety of crispy, caramel, chocolate and peanut butter flavored candy bars.
In top of double boiler over hot, not boiling, water, melt chocolate,cream and corn syrup, whicking until smooth; let cool. Let ice cream soften at room temperature for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, cover 10 inch cardboard circle with waxed paper and place in 11 inch springform pan. Chop candy bars and cookies. Spread 1 container of ice cream over bottom.
