Luscious and rich, this decadent no-bake dessert covers a multitude of cravings: caramel, cheesecake, chocolate, ice cream, salt!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 ounces Salted Caramel Gelato, softened but not melted (I used Safeway Select brand)
  • 7 ounce bag Milky Way Unwrapped Bites
  • 8 ounce package of cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 8 ounce carton of Cool Whip, defrosted
  • More Cool Whip for garnish
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. Line a 9″ x 5″ loaf pan with plastic wrap so that plastic wrap drapes over the pan and will cover the top of the loaf pan, once all layers of the dessert are in the pan.
  2. Cut a piece of wax paper to fit the bottom of the loaf pan and place it in the loaf pan.
  3. Spread the softened gelato in the bottom of the loaf pan, smoothing with a spatula.
  4. Place in the freezer and freeze 2 hours.
  5. Remove from freezer and add a layer of Milky Way Unwrapped Bites, reserving 8 to 12 bites for garnish.
  6. Return to freezer.
  7. In the meantime, make the cheesecake layer: place softened cream cheese in a mixing bowl and add powdered sugar.
  8. With an electric mixer, beat on low until smooth.
  9. Fold the defrosted Cool Whip into the cream cheese mixture by hand.
  10. Remove ice cream from freezer and spread cheesecake layer over Milky Ways, using a spatula to smooth evenly.
  11. Cover with plastic wrap (hanging over the sides of the loaf pan) and freeze for 2 more hours.
  12. When firm, remove dessert from freezer, peel back the plastic wrap and invert on serving platter.
  13. Remove the rest of the plastic wrap and the wax paper.
  14. Garnish with dollops of additional Cool Whip, reserved Milky Way Unwrapped Bites and fresh mint leaves.
  15. Slice and serve immediately.
  16. Any leftovers can be wrapped in wax paper and plastic wrap and stored in the freezer.
