ALMOND-CRUNCH ICE CREAM CAKE



Almond-Crunch Ice Cream Cake image

A frozen almond extravaganza, this ice cream cake was inspired by Good Humor's Toasted Almond Bar: Almond cake layers are brushed with amaretto syrup and have vanilla ice cream and sugared almonds between them; the icing is whipped cream, coated with cake crumbs and more almonds.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 15

2/3 cup blanched whole almonds
2/3 cup cake flour (not self-rising)
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, for pans
6 large eggs, separated
Pinch kosher salt
1 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup blanched sliced almonds
6 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons amaretto or other almond-flavored liqueur, optional
1/2 teaspoon pure almond extract
4 pints vanilla ice cream, slightly softened
3/4 cup cold heavy cream
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Cake:Preheat oven to 300 degrees with rack in center. Spread whole almonds in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet; bake until golden, about 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer sheet to a wire rack; let cool completely.
  • Pulse whole almonds and cake flour in a food processor until finely ground, about 30 seconds.
  • Butter two 7-inch round cake pans. Line pans with parchment; butter parchment.
  • In the bowl of a mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat together egg whites and salt on medium speed until soft peaks form. Increase speed to high and gradually add 1/2 cup sugar, beating until stiff and glossy, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
  • Clean mixer bowl and return to mixer fitted with the whisk attachment; beat together egg yolks and vanilla. With mixer on high speed, gradually add remaining 1/2 cup sugar, beating until pale and thick, about 5 minutes.
  • Fold egg-white mixture into egg-yolk mixture. In three additions, fold in almond mixture. Divide batter evenly between prepared pans, smoothing tops with an offset spatula.
  • Bake until a tester inserted in centers comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer pans to a wire rack; let cool completely. Turn out cakes and wrap in plastic until ready to use.
  • Almond Crunch:Increase oven temperature to 325 degrees. In a medium bowl, toss together sliced almonds, granulated sugar, and 2 tablespoons water. Spread almond mixture evenly on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until golden, about 25 minutes. Transfer sheet to a wire rack; let cool completely.
  • Assembly:Bring granulated sugar and 1/3 cup water to a boil in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally. When sugar has dissolved, remove from heat; add amaretto, if using, and almond extract. Let cool completely.
  • Using a serrated knife, split each cake horizontally into two equal layers.
  • Cut three 24-by-6-inch strips of parchment. Place strips on top of one another and use to line the sides of a 7-inch springform pan. Generously brush tops of cake layers with syrup. Place a cake layer in prepared pan.
  • In the chilled bowl of a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat ice cream on medium-low speed until spreadable, about 2 minutes. Spread about 2 cups ice cream over first cake layer. Crumble 1/2 cup almond crunch over ice cream. Top with a second cake layer; transfer to freezer until firm, about 20 minutes. Repeat, spreading 2 cups ice cream and 1/2 cup almond crunch between each layer. Finish with a cake layer. Freeze 1 hour.
  • Just before serving, whisk cream and confectioners' sugar to medium peaks in a chilled bowl. Remove cake from freezer and release sides of pan. Transfer cake to a serving platter. Tuck parchment strips under perimeter of cake. Frost top and sides of cake with whipped cream; remove parchment strips. Garnish top with remaining almond crunch; serve immediately.

Yield Makes about 1 quart

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups heavy cream
1 cup whole milk
3/4 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 cup sliced almonds
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
Equipment:
Equipment: An ice cream maker

Steps:

  • Whisk together cream, milk, sugar, and eggs in a heavy medium saucepan, then cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until custard is thick enough to coat back of a spoon and registers 175°F on an instant-read thermometer. Strain custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl. Cool completely, stirring frequently, then chill, covered, until very cold, at least 8 hours.
  • Meanwhile, cook almonds in butter with a scant 1/4 teaspoon salt in a heavy skillet over medium heat, stirring, until butter and almonds are pale golden, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat and cool.
  • Freeze custard in ice cream maker, then fold in almonds with butter. Transfer to an airtight container and put in freezer to harden.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and creamier your ice cream will be.
  • Freeze your bananas in advance: This will help them blend more smoothly and give your ice cream a creamier texture.
  • Add your favorite mix-ins: You can add a variety of mix-ins to your ice cream, such as chocolate chips, nuts, fruit, or even peanut butter.
  • Be patient: It takes time for the ice cream to freeze, so be patient and don't rush the process.

Conclusion:

Almond ice cream cups are a delicious and refreshing treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With just a few simple ingredients, you can enjoy a delicious and healthy dessert that the whole family will love.
