Birthday Ice Cake

We love to make every special occasion more special with delicious ice cream cake. Two layers of our favorite flavor of ice cream combine with Fudge in between layers, making the special occasion more festive.

Kathleen is turning 8 and I am going to make 2 layers of ice cream cake for the party. The first layer would be vanilla ice cream with chocolate chuck and the second layer is chocolate ice cream. We are going to drizzle fudge in between 2 layers of ice cream.

The theme for the party will be figure skating. Thanks to Jenny Gregor, Karen Lagergren, and Mary Hokansen who gave her ice skating boot ornament that we can use for decoration on the cake. For frosting, I am going to use butter cream with purple color (Kathleen’s favorite color).

It is easy to make, but you need to have a springform cake pan and Saran wrap.

Ingredients
• 1.5-1.75 Quarts of vanilla and chocolate chuck ice cream, soften in room temperature
• 1.5-1.75 Quarts of chocolate ice cream, soften to room temperature
• Chocolate Fudge “Smucker’s”
• Butter icing or melt chocolate for frosting, see Birthday cupcake recipe for butter icing in my blog
• Your favorite topping or decorations

How to make
• Layer the entire springform pan with saran wrap
• Add first layer of cream, smooth it with spatula
• Layer chocolate fudge on top of first layer, and refrigerate until it settles
• Add second layer of ice cream, refrigerated at least 4-6 hours
• Loosen springform pan, remove plastic wrap, place the ice cream cake in a serving plate
• Layer frosting on the cake and decorate it as you desire
