Enjoy two summertime favorites in one with a flag ice cream cake! Blueberries and raspberries depict the American flag in classic flag cake decoration, with the easiest layered ice cream sandwich cake underneath. A perfect no-bake Fourth of July dessert.

Ingredients

Whipped Cream:

  • 3 cups heavy whipping cream
  • ⅓ cup confectioners’ sugar, sifted
  • 5 Tablespoons dry instant white chocolate or vanilla pudding mix (not cook-and-serve)

Other Ingredients:

  • 1 cup finely chopped Oreo cookies (about 8 cookies)
  • 25 ice cream sandwiches (can get away with 24)
  • 1 half-pint package fresh blueberries, dried very well
  • 23 half-pint packages fresh raspberries, dried very well

Instructions

  1. Whipped Cream: Pour cream into a mixing bowl, add sifted confectioners’ sugar and dry instant pudding mix. Beat on medium-high speed until firm peaks form.
  2. Assemble Cake: Line a 9×13 inch pan with parchment paper. Layer ice cream sandwiches, Oreo whipped cream, and remaining ice cream sandwiches. Freeze for at least an hour.
  3. To Decorate: Pat berries dry, then spread reserved whipped cream over the top layer of ice cream sandwiches. Arrange blueberries in a square and raspberries as stripes.

Notes

  • Cool Whip Substitution – Use around 6 cups of Cool Whip if substituting for whipped cream. Omit sugar and pudding mix.
  • Pudding Mix – White chocolate or vanilla pudding mix can be used.
  • Making the Cake Ahead – Assemble, decorate, and freeze. Allow to sit briefly before serving.
  • Leftovers – Wrap slices tightly and freeze in an airtight container.
