A Litte Help, Please: Birthday Treat Edition

Someone who is very important in my life has a birthday coming up, and I'd like to surprise her with a delicious birthday treat.  She loves chocolate.  And peanut butter ... in close proximity to chocolate.  She does not particularly care for cake, but she loves ice cream.  And chocolate.  Oh, I already said that, didn't I?  Well, she really, really loves chocolate.

I've decided on a Peanut Butter Cup ice cream cake, but I'm having a little trouble narrowing down my choices.  Will you help?

Here's what I've got.

Option A from Sugar Plum Blog starts with a peanut butter cookie base smothered in chocolate frozen custard (no, I don't know what the difference between custard and ice cream is, either), and topped with dark chocolate and peanut butter cups.

Option B from Eggs on Sunday has a chocolate cookie crumb base, topped with chopped peanut butter cups mixed with chocolate ice cream, and covered with chocolate ganache and more peanut butter cups.

Option C from Coupon Cousins is not an ice cream cake, but I think she would like it, just the same.  Chopped peanut butter cups folded into chocolate whipped cream and spread in a chocolate cookie crumb crust, then frozen

And then there's this.

So...what do you think?  Vote for your favorite and I'll make the one that receives the most votes.
