Celebrate!!!

Today is my husbands birthday!!
We made him the best cake ever!!
I borrowed the recipe from Sandy over at One Day at a Time and it is the easiest and tastiest cake you can ever make!! My camera is broken so you will have to pop over there to see just how yummy this cake looks!!! It looked so delicious that we actually broke into the cake after church yesterday and ate a good part of it. I guess we will be baking another one this morning for him, maybe pineapple upside down cake??? Anyway here is Sandy's incredible recipe for
Hot Fudge Ice Cream Dessert:

Ingredients
1 (16 ounce) can chocolate syrup
3/4 cup peanut butter
19 ice cream sandwiches
1 (12 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 cup salted peanuts
Directions
1.Pour the chocolate syrup into a medium microwave safe bowl and microwave 2 minutes on high. Do not allow to boil. Stir peanut butter into hot chocolate until smooth. Allow to cool to room temperature.
2.Line the bottom of a 9x13 inch dish with a layer of ice cream sandwiches. Spread half the whipped topping over the sandwiches. Spoon half the chocolate mixture over that. Top with half the peanuts. Repeat layers. Freeze until firm, 1 hour. Cut into squares to serve.

Yummy huh??
