Start by preparing a 23 cm (9-inch) springform pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal later.
In a food processor, pulse the chocolate wafer cookies until they are finely ground into crumbs.
Melt the butter in a small saucepan or microwave. Add the melted butter to the cookie crumbs and pulse again until well combined.
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared springform pan. Use the back of a spoon or a flat-bottomed glass to compact it evenly. Place in the freezer for 15 minutes to set.
Take the chocolate ice cream out of the freezer to soften for about 10 minutes.
Spoon half of the softened ice cream over the chilled crust and spread evenly using a spatula. Freeze for 20 minutes to firm up.
After 20 minutes, remove the pan from the freezer and sprinkle half of the chocolate chips evenly over the ice cream layer.
Spoon the remaining ice cream over the chocolate chips and spread evenly. Place in the freezer for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, beat the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form, creating a homemade whipped cream topping.
Remove the cake from the freezer and spread the whipped cream over the top layer of ice cream.
Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips over the whipped cream layer.
Drizzle chocolate syrup over the top for garnish.
Cover the cake with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours or until completely firm.
When ready to serve, remove the cake from the freezer. Let it sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes before releasing the springform pan and slicing with a hot, dry knife.
Serve immediately and enjoy your nut-free chocolate ice cream cake!
