Ice Cream cakes are always something special. They are a perfect blend of rich and creamy ice cream with moist cake and smooth frosting. These dessert delights are easy to make when you utilize store bought ingredients and a bit of imagination.
First things first write out your shopping list. You will need;
1. Angel Food Cake
2. Your Favorite Flavor of Ice Cream
3. Frozen Whipped Topping
4. Fresh fruit or chocolate as garnish
When you bring home all your ingredients place the cake and the ice cream in the freezer for about one hour. Allow the frozen whipped topping to thaw on the counter and slice the fresh fruit or chocolate into decorative piceces to garnish the top of the cake.
After about an hour remove the ice cream and allow it to thaw for about 20 minutes. Then remove the cake from the freezer and cut into three horizontal layers.
Mix the ice cream with a wooden spoon until it is smooth and creamy then frost between the layers of cake with your favorite flavor of ice cream. Once the cake is assembled frost the outside with the thawed frozen whipped topping. You can then garnish the cake with fruit or chocolate.
Place the cake back into the freezer until ready to serve.
