Categories     dessert

Time 5h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ice Cream Cake:
Unsalted butter, for buttering the pan
8 to 10 brownies (2 1/2-inch squares)
1/2 cup crushed chocolate sandwich cookies
2 quarts mint chocolate chip ice cream, softened
Vanilla Whipped Cream Frosting:
2 cups heavy cream
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Chocolate sprinkles, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • For the ice cream cake: Butter a 9-inch springform pan and line it with a parchment paper circle. Cover the bottom of the pan with the brownies, using any extra pieces to line the sides of the pan if desired. Sprinkle with the cookies. Scoop the ice cream onto the cookie layer, packing it in tightly. Spread with an offset spatula to make a smooth top. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
  • Unmold the cake by running a knife around the edge of it, then unhinging the springform ring and removing it. Invert the cake onto a sheet of plastic wrap and remove the bottom of the pan and the parchment. Place a plate on the bottom and invert once more.
  • For the vanilla whipped cream frosting: Add the cream, confectioners' sugar and vanilla to a large bowl and beat with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. This makes enough frosting to cover the top and sides of the cake with additional to pipe decorations if desired.
  • Frost the top and sides of the cake with the whipped cream frosting and decorate with the sprinkles. If the cake begins to get too soft, put it back into the freezer for a few minutes.
  • Freeze an additional 1 1/2 hours and up to overnight. Before serving, let the cake sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 5h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for buttering the pan
9 ounces chocolate wafer cookies, crushed
4 cups chocolate ice cream (1 quart), softened
4 cups mint or mint chip ice cream (1 quart), softened
8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup crushed mint chocolate wafer cookies

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-inch spring-form pan and line the bottom with parchment.
  • Combine the melted butter with the wafer cookies in a medium bowl. Press the mixture into the bottom and almost up the entire side of the prepared pan. Bake for 10 minutes, let cool completely before using.
  • Scoop the chocolate and mint ice creams onto the cookie layer, packing it in tightly and alternating the scoops to create a marbled or checkerboard effect. Spread with an offset spatula to make a smooth top. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
  • Unmold the cake by running a knife around the edge, then unhinge the spring-form and remove. Invert the cake onto a sheet of plastic wrap and remove the bottom of the pan and the parchment. Place a serving plate on the bottom and invert once more (so the cookie layer is on the bottom). Keep in the freezer until ready to frost.
  • Put the chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl. Bring the heavy cream to a simmer in a small saucepan. Pour the cream over the chocolate and stir until smooth. Allow to cool 10 minutes before using.
  • Frost the top and sides of the cake with the ganache and top with the wafer cookies. If the cake begins to get too soft, put it back into the freezer for a few minutes.
  • Freeze another 1 1/2 to 2 hours or up to overnight. Let the cake sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes before slicing and serving.

Yield Makes 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

10 1/2 tablespoons sugar, divided
1/2 cup powdered sugar
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
4 large egg whites
2 pints mint chip ice cream, slightly softened
1/2 cup chilled whipping cream
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup chocolate sprinkles

Steps:

  • Position 1 rack in top third and 1 rack in bottom third of oven and preheat to 200°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. Trace two 12x4-inch rectangles, spaced slightly apart, on 1 paper. Trace one 12x4-inch rectangle on second paper. Turn papers over (marked lines should show through). Sift 3 tablespoons sugar, powdered sugar, and cocoa into medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat egg whites in large bowl until frothy. Add 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar and beat until soft peaks form. Gradually add 5 tablespoons sugar, beating until whites are stiff and glossy. Fold in cocoa mixture. Spread 1/3 of meringue (about 1 1/2 cups) evenly over each marked rectangle. Bake meringues until dry, reversing sheets every hour, about 4 hours total. Turn off oven; leave meringues in oven overnight.
  • Lift meringues from parchment. Place 2 meringues on work surface. Gently spread 1 pint ice cream over each, being careful not to press hard to avoid cracking meringues. Place 1 filled meringue on long platter. Top with second filled meringue, then third meringue, pressing lightly to adhere. Cover and freeze assembled cake at least 2 hours and up to 1 day.
  • Beat cream, vanilla, and remaining 1 tablespoon sugar in small bowl until peaks form. Spread whipped cream on top layer of meringue to cover; scatter chocolate sprinkles evenly over. Cut crosswise into slices and serve.

MINT CHOCOLATE CHIP ICE CREAM CAKE



Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Cake image

With just a 9-by-13 pan, a spoon and four store-bought ingredients, you can make an ice cream cake that's creamy, crunchy and fudgy in every bite. It starts with crushed chocolate-mint cookies that are covered with mint chocolate chip ice cream. Next, it's topped with a layer of ice cream sandwiches, with their cakey cookies and vanilla ice cream. Follow that with more mint chip ice cream, and you've made a six-layer cake without breaking a sweat. Feel free to experiment here: Swap out the mint cookies for snickerdoodles, pretzels or broken waffle cones, and the mint-chip ice cream for coffee, peanut butter or strawberry ice cream - or any combination that sounds good to you. Slice the cake into pieces big or small, then drizzle them with hot fudge or Magic Shell. This cake serves a crowd, but you can halve the ingredients and build it in an 8-by-8-inch pan for a smaller group.

Time 2h30m

Yield One 9-by-13-inch cake (15 to 18 servings)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 cups coarsely crushed crisp chocolate-mint or chocolate cookies (about 10 ounces)
2 (1.5-quart) cartons or 6 pints mint chocolate chip ice cream
12 full-size rectangular ice cream sandwiches
Store-bought or homemade hot fudge sauce or Magic Shell, for serving

Steps:

  • Line a 9-by-13-inch pan with two layers of plastic wrap, leaving a few inches of overhang on all sides. Open all of the ice cream containers. Place one 1 1/2 quart (or 3 pints) on the counter and let soften until it resembles thick cake batter, 5 to 10 minutes; you'll use this ice cream first. Place the other containers in the refrigerator to soften while you build the first half of the cake. (Ice cream will reach the desired consistency in the refrigerator in 20 to 30 minutes.)
  • Scatter the crushed cookies in a thin, even layer across the bottom of the pan. Spoon the first softened container of ice cream over the cookies and spread into an even layer. Press down as you go to adhere the ice cream to the cookies. If at any point the ice cream is melting to liquid, pop the cake and ice cream in the freezer to firm to a spoonable consistency.
  • Place the pan in the freezer while you unwrap the sandwiches. Top the ice cream with a layer of ice cream sandwiches, cutting some as needed to fill the layer to the edges.
  • Spoon the remaining ice cream over the top and spread into an even layer. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, at least 2 hours or up to 1 week.
  • To serve, use the plastic overhang to remove the cake from the pan. Cut into squares or rectangles and serve with a drizzle of hot fudge or Magic Shell. If you're finding the cake too solid to cut, don't wait for it to soften: Warm your knife by running it under hot water and wiping it dry between cuts.

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 quart heavy cream
5 cups packed fresh mint leaves (about 4 ounces), coarsely chopped
1 cup sugar
10 large egg yolks
10 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
1 cup whole mint leaves

Steps:

  • In medium saucepan, bring cream and chopped mint to a simmer. Turn off heat, and let steep 5 minutes. Strain out mint, and return cream to saucepan.
  • Add 3/4 cup sugar to cream, and bring to a simmer. Whisk together egg yolks and remaining sugar. Remove cream from heat, and add a little to egg mixture to warm, stirring constantly to keep yolks from cooking. Pour egg mixture into cream, stirring constantly. Return custard to heat, and cook over low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until mixture thickens enough to coat back of spoon. Remove from heat, and pour into bowl. Cool completely.
  • Strain custard, then chill until thoroughly cold, at least 4 hours.
  • Meanwhile, prepare mint chips. Melt chocolate in top of double boiler over simmering water. Cool slightly. Lay a 12-by-24-inch sheet of parchment paper on a work surface. Pour melted chocolate onto parchment, spreading evenly to cover entire surface. Lay mint leaves onto chocolate until half the surface is covered, being careful not to overlap. Lift parchment, and lay plain chocolate over mint-covered chocolate to cover. Place in refrigerator for 20 minutes to set.
  • Remove chocolate from refrigerator, and peel off parchment. Break chocolate into large pieces, and then roughly chop. Refrigerate until needed.
  • Freeze ice cream mixture in an ice cream maker, following manufacturer's instructions. Using a spatula, fold in chocolate mint chips by hand. Place in freezer for at least 2 hours before serving.
