Ingredients:
- 1.5 cups (170g) crushed sugar-free chocolate wafers
- 4 tbsp (55g) melted unsalted butter
- 1 pinch (1g) sea salt
- 1 pint (473ml) low-sugar vanilla ice cream, softened
- 1 pint (473ml) low-sugar strawberry ice cream, softened
- 0.5 cup (60g) crushed nuts
- 1 cup (240ml) chilled heavy whipping cream
- 0.5 cup (120g) plain Greek yogurt, strained
- 2 tbsp (25g) maple syrup
- 1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract
Instructions:
- Combine crushed wafers, melted butter, and salt in a bowl until the mixture resembles wet sand.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a parchment-lined springform pan using the bottom of a flat glass.
- Freeze the crust for 15 minutes to set the foundation.
- Spread half of the softened vanilla ice cream over the chilled base, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Sprinkle half of the nuts evenly across the vanilla layer.
- Repeat the process with the second ice cream flavor, ensuring the edges are pressed firmly against the sides of the pan.
- Smooth the top surface and freeze for at least 4 hours.
- Beat the chilled heavy cream, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
- Spread the velvety mixture over the frozen cake, using a spatula to create decorative swirls.
- Return to the freezer for 1 hour before releasing the springform ring.
