Mmm-Mmm Ice Cream Cake

Ingredients

• 1/3 cup butter, melted
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup sliced almonds
• 1 cup sweetened flaked coconut
• 1 cup high-protein crisp rice and wheat cereal (such as Kellogg's® Special K®) - crushed
•  
• 1/2 gallon vanilla ice cream, softened
•  
• 1 (6 ounce) package chocolate chips
• 3/4 cup light corn syrup
• 1/2 cup evaporated milk

Directions

1. Mix melted butter, brown sugar, almonds, coconut, and crushed cereal together in a bowl until thoroughly combined and crumbly. Press half the mixture into a 9x13-inch dish; reserve remaining mixture.
2. Smooth the ice cream in an even layer over the crust. Sprinkle top with remaining cereal mixture.
3. In a saucepan, combine the chocolate chips, corn syrup, and evaporated milk over low heat until the chocolate chips have melted; stir the mixture until combined and smooth. Heat to a bare simmer, and cook, stirring constantly, until the syrup has thickened, 5 to 10 minutes. Allow to cool for about 10 minutes, then drizzle syrup over the top of the cake. Freeze the cake until firm, at least 1 hour; remove about 15 minutes before serving.
