Categories     Cake     Milk/Cream     Chocolate     Dessert     Kid-Friendly     Almond     Amaretto     Gourmet     Small Plates

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 cups fine chocolate wafer crumbs (about 30 wafers)
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 pints coffee ice cream, softened slightly
1 1/2 cups well-chilled heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups crushed amaretti (Italian almond macaroons, available at specialty foods shops and some supermarkets)
1/2 cup sliced almonds, toasted
For the dark chocolate sauce:
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
2/3 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
4 ounces fine-quality bittersweet chocolate, chopped
3 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter, softened
3 to 4 tablespoons Amaretto, or to taste

Steps:

  • To make the cake:
  • In a bowl with a fork stir together the crumbs and the butter until the mixture is combined well, pat the mixture onto the bottom and 1 inch up the side of a lightly oiled 8-inch springform pan, 2 1/2 inches deep, and freeze the crust for 30 minutes, or until it is firm. Spread the ice cream evenly on the crust and return the pan to the freeze for 30 minutes, or until the ice cream is firm. In a bowl with an electric mixer beat the cream with the vanilla until it holds stiff peaks, fold in the amaretti thoroughly, and spread the mixture over the ice cream. Smooth the top of the cake, sprinkle it with the almonds, and freeze the cake for 30 to 45 minutes, or until the top is firm. Freeze the cake, covered with plastic wrap and foil, for at least 4 hours or overnight. Just before serving, wrap a warm dampened kitchen towel around the side of the pan, remove the side, and transfer the cake to a serving plate. Cut the cake into wedges with a knife dipped in hot water and serve it with the chocolate sauce.
  • To make the sauce:
  • In a small heavy saucepan combine the cream and the brown sugar, bring the mixture to a boil over moderately high heat, whisking occasionally, and boil it, whisking, until the brown sugar is dissolved. Remove the pan from the heat and add the chocolates, whisking until they are melted. Whisk in the butter and the Amaretto, whisking until the sauce is smooth, and let the sauce cool slightly. The chocolate sauce may be made 1 week in advance and kept covered and chilled. Reheat the chocolate sauce over very low heat, stirring occasionally, until it is warm.

COFFEE ALMOND ICE CREAM CAKE

Categories     Cake     Chocolate     Dessert     Freeze/Chill

Yield 8-10

Number Of Ingredients 15

ICE CREAM CAKE
1 1/2 cups chocolate wafer crumbs (about 30 wafers)
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, melted
1 1/2 pints coffee ice cream, softened
1 1/2 cups whipping cream, chilled
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups crushed amaretti cookies (about 5 oz)
1/2 cup sliced blanched almonds, lightly toasted
CHOCOLATE SAUCE (I use jarred hot fudge)
1 oz unsweetened chocolate
1/3 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • For the cake, mix the wafer crumbs and butter in a bowl. Pat crumb mixture in bottom of an oiled 8" springform pan. Freeze for 30 minutes. Spread ice cream in prepared pan. Beat whipping cream and vanilla in a mixing bowl until stiff peaks form. Fold in cookie crumbs. Spread the mixture over the prepared layers. Smooth top and sprinkle with almonds. Freeze, covered 4-10 hours. For sauce, heat chocolate and water in saucepan over low heat until blended. Stir in sugar and salt. Cook 2-3 minutes or until thickened, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Add butter and vanilla and stir until blended. Can be prepared in advance and reheated. To serve, slice cake and serve each slice in a pool of chocolate sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose the right almonds: Use raw, unsalted almonds for the best flavor and texture. If you only have roasted almonds, you can use them, but the flavor will be slightly different.
  • Soak the almonds: Soaking the almonds overnight helps to soften them and make them easier to blend. If you don't have time to soak the almonds overnight, you can quick-soak them by placing them in boiling water for 10 minutes, then draining them.
  • Use a high-powered blender: A high-powered blender is essential for getting a smooth and creamy ice cream. If you don't have a high-powered blender, you can try using a food processor, but the results may not be as smooth.
  • Don't over-churn the ice cream: Over-churning the ice cream can make it icy and grainy. Churn the ice cream just until it is thick and creamy, about 20-25 minutes.
  • Store the ice cream properly: Store the ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Almond coffee ice cream is a delicious and refreshing treat that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect almond coffee ice cream that will impress your friends and family.
