BERRIES-AND-CHERRIES ICE CREAM CAKE

Steps:

• Combine vodka and 1/3 cup sugar; gently stir in cherries and berries. Let stand 2 hours, stirring occasionally; or refrigerate, covered, up to 12 hours. Strain (reserving syrup for another use).
• Pulse wafers in a food processor until finely ground. Add butter and 1/2 teaspoon salt; pulse until mixture has the texture of wet sand. Press half of mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan; freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Temper cherry ice cream in the refrigerator until it has the texture of soft-serve, about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, beat cream with remaining 1/3 cup sugar to soft peaks. Stir two thirds of whipped cream (refrigerate the remainder) into cherry ice cream just to combine. Pour ice cream mixture over crust; smooth top and freeze until firm, about 1 hour.
• Top with remaining crumb mixture; press to lightly pack. Freeze 20 minutes. Meanwhile, temper vanilla ice cream in the refrigerator about 20 minutes, then stir into remaining whipped cream just to combine. Fold in half of cherry-berry mixture. Spread over crumb mixture, smooth top, and sprinkle with remaining berry-cherry mixture. Cover and freeze at least 4 hours and up to 2 days.

Run a thin-bladed knife between cake and sides of pan to loosen; remove sides. Run knife between bottom of cake and pan; transfer to a cake plate. Drizzle chocolate evenly over cake; top with whole cherries and berries.
• Return to freezer until chocolate hardens, 2 to 3 minutes; or freeze, loosely covered, up to 8 hours. Slice into wedges using a sharp knife dipped in hot water (if cake is too firm to slice, let temper in the refrigerator 10 to 15 minutes first).

BERRIES AND CREAM ICE CREAM CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Freeze another 1 1/2 to 2 hours or overnight. Before serving, let the cake sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes.

Reduce the mixer speed to low; beat in the cocoa mixture in a steady stream until just combined, then finish mixing with a rubber spatula. (The batter will be thin.)
• Divide the batter between the prepared pans and tap the pans against the counter to help the batter settle. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes. Transfer to racks and let cool 10 minutes, then run a knife around the edge of the pans and turn the cakes out onto the racks to cool completely. Remove the parchment.
