Ingredients

2 pints ice cream chocolate or chocolate fudge
1 1/2 pints vanilla ice cream
18 each sandwich cookies chocolate
3 each peanut butter packages of cups, 1.6 ounces each
1 each banana medium
1/4 each ice cream of 7.25 botttle fudge "hard shell" type
1/4 cup nuts , your favourite , optional

Directions

Needed: 9x5 inch loaf pan.

Take the ice cream from the containers and place in two large bowls.

Let stand at room temperature to soften slightly, stirring occasionally.

While ice cream is softening, place chocolate sandwich cookies in a closable plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin or meat tenderizer until coarse.

Coarsely chop peanut butter cups with a knife or scissors.

Slice the banana.

Spoon half of the crushed cookies into the bottom of the loaf pan, then top with 1/4 of the softened chocolate ice cream.

Stir the peanut butter cups into the softened vanilla ice cream, then spoon the vanilla mixture over the chocolate layer, pressing down with the back of the spoon to remove any air pockets.

Sprinkle with the remaining crushed chocolate cookies.

Stir the sliced banana into the remaining softened chocolate ice cream, then spoon mixture over the cookie layer.

Smooth ice cream with the back of a spoon.

If desired, sprinkle with chopped nuts. Cover ice cream loaf with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, approximately 4 hours.

Immerse loaf pan (careful not to immerse ice cream!) in warm water, then invert pan onto oval platter to remove ice cream.

Drizzle with ice cream "hard shell".

Let stand for about 15 minutes at room temperature before serving.

Slice with knife warmed in hot water to serve.

Bohemian Braid

I spotted this recipe in my mom's old Betty Crocker cookbook when I was about 15 years old. I was in Home Ec at the time and this looked spectacular so I made it that Christmas to "show off." It became an instant family Christmas tradition. This beautiful bread looks like it came right out of a picture in a cookbook, even when made by a novice. You'll always get ohhs and ahhs when unveiling it. Perfect as a home-baked gift too.
