How to Make an Ice Cream Cake





Don't spend $20 or more on a store bought ice cream cake! Make one yourself. It's less expensive, tastes better, and can be exactly the way you want it!





Steps


1. Frozen delight


About 24 hours before serving, take the ice cream out of the freezer and allow to thaw for about 30 minutes. You want it soft, but not too soft. You don't want it runny. When it is soft enough to work with, spread it into one of the round cake pans. It helps if you put a round piece of wax paper in the bottom of the pan (cut to fit) before putting in the ice cream. Work as quickly as you can, since you don't want it to melt too much. Try to get it as even as possible, being careful to fill in any holes and gaps. Cover with plastic wrap, then with foil. Place into the freezer overnight to re-harden.





In the morning, bake your cake. Fill the other round cake pan with half the batter, and fill the cupcake tin with the other half (save these for kids' lunch boxes). Bake, cool, and remove from pan as directed on box or in recipe. It is important that the cake is completely cool before proceeding.





About 3 hours (or more) before serving time, remove the cake pan with the ice cream from the freezer and allow to thaw slightly on the counter (about 5-15 min). Do not thaw for too long! You want to be able to easily insert a butter knife between the ice cream and the pan. Place a dinner plate on top of the pan, and invert the pan onto the plate. Allow a minute or two, and the ice cream should loosen and fall onto the plate.





Working quickly, place the cooled cake on top of the ice cream. Frost and decorate. Cover with plastic wrap and place back into freezer to harden for about three hours or more.





At serving time, remove from freezer, decorate with candles, sing Happy Birthday, and cut as you would for a store-bought cake.


Enjoy!





Tips


Use large chunks of frosting when frosting the cake. This makes it easier to spread.


Use a butter knife for frosting; don't use something soft like a rubber spatula.


If you buy the ice cream, cake mix, and frosting on sale, this cake should cost about $7. It's even less expensive if you make the cake and frosting from scratch.


It is also possible to substitute flavored (i.e. no chunks of anything in it) ice cream for the frosting. Just soften the ice cream and stir it into a whipped consistency, then spread like frosting.


If you are not an experienced baker, don't worry if your project doesn't turn out really pretty! It will still taste great, and your birthday-boy or birthday-girl will still appreciate your effort! And remember: practice makes perfect. Keep working at it and your baking projects will turn out better and better.


Once you get the hang of this cake try variations: The ice cream sandwiched between two layers of cake, Fruit fillings between the ice cream and cake layers, etc.





Warnings


When working with the ice cream, it's important to work as quickly as possible because you don't want it to melt too much.
