An ice cream cake is the ultimate blend of two great desserts: cake and ice cream. This dessert combines rich and creamy ice cream with soft, fluffy cake layers. Even more, an ice cream cake recipe can pull off so many different guises, so it is a favourite among dessert lovers. Layering cake and ice cream is the start of a classic ice cream cake recipe. First, bake a superficial layer of cake, whether plain vanilla or chocolate sponge; let it cool entirely. If necessary, slice the cake when cooled into layers. Choose a favourite flavour of ice cream-chocolate, vanilla, or fruit flavour for this dessert. Let it soften for easier spreading. Take the softened ice cream and layer over the cake layers, smoothing it out using a spatula. You may change flavour or add layers of crushed cookies, candies, or fruits to bring in added texture and taste. Freeze after layering until firm. A final layer of frosting or whipped cream atop the cake, and thoroughly coating its sides, is often included in the recipe for ice cream cake. Additional toppings could be sprinkles, chocolate shavings, or even fresh fruits. The finished cake should then be placed in the freezer until served. The glory of an ice cream cake: textural and flavour contrasts that come together in a showstopping dessert that's as fun to make as it is to eat.

Cooking steps for Ice Cream Cake
- 1Let's begin making ice cream cake!
- 2Start by pre heating your oven to 175 degrees.
- 3Meanwhile use the baking spray to grease two 8-inch round cake pans.
- 4It's time to add the dry ingredients. Take a bowl and throw in some flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- 5Grab another bowl and cream some butter and sugar in it. This should be done using an electric mixer. Soon your butter and sugar will become light and fluffy.
- 6Now, add in the wet ingredients. Add an egg, vanilla extract, oil or butter, and mix, mix, mix.
- 7Now add in the dry ingredients slowly and gradually, alternating with the milk. Combine it well, but don't over mix!
- 8Pour into pans and divide evenly between prepared cake pans; smoothing tops with a spatula.
- 9Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of one of the cakes comes out clean, about 20-25 minutes..
- 10Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- 11Allow the ice cream to soften at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes until soft, but not melted, and easily spreadable.
- 12Once the cakes are completely cooled, place one cake layer on a serving plate or cake stand. Evenly cover the cake with one flavour of softened ice cream.
- 13Use a spatula to spread it and smooth out the top.
- 14Freeze the cake for about 1-2 hours in order to firm it.
- 15Once the first layer of ice cream has set, spread the second flavour of ice cream-softened over it.
- 16Use a spatula to smoothen the top, and place the cake into the freezer for another couple of hours.
- 17Now refrigerate the mixing bowl and beaters for a few minutes.
- 18Bring it out, and whip the cream in the chilled bowl. If you use the electric mixer, results will be better.
- 19Continue whipping the cream until it achieves thickness.
- 20Now slowly add powdered sugar and vanilla, while continuing to whip the mix. Once you achieve peaks, bring your cake out of the freezer. Now spread a thick layer of whipped cream on the top and sides of the cake.
- 21Smoothen it using a scraper or spatula.
- 22Let's add some frosting, and garnish it with chocolate syrup, sprinkles.
- 23Your delicious ice cream cake is ready!
- 24Go wild and have fun!
- 25After decorating, refrigerate or freeze the cake again until it's firm and ready to slice- at least 2 hours.
- 26When ready to serve, pull the cake from the freezer and place it in room temperature for about 5 minutes, until it becomes a little soft and way easier to slice into.
