Categories     Cake     Egg     Dessert     Bake     Freeze/Chill     Quick & Easy     Fall     Spring

Yield Serves 16

Number Of Ingredients 6

vegetable oil spray for misting the pan
flour for dusting the pan
1 package (18.25 ounces) plain white cake mix
2 cups melted ice cream, your choice of flavor
3 large eggs
Chocolate Marshmallow Frosting

Steps:

  • Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly mist a 12-cup Bundt pan with vegetable oil spray, then dust with flour. Shake out the excess flour. Set the pan aside.
  • Place the cake mix, melted ice cream, and eggs in a large mixing bowl. Blend with an electric mixer on low speed for 1 minute. Stop the machine and scrape down the sides of the bowl with the rubber spatula. Increase the mixer speed to medium and beat 2 minutes more, scraping the sides down again if needed. The batter should look thick and well blended. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with the rubber spatula. Place the pan in the oven.
  • Bake the cake until it springs back when lightly pressed with your finger and just starts to pull away from the sides of the pan, 38 to 42 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and place it on a wire rack to cool for 20 minutes. Run a long, sharp knife around the edge of the cake and invert it onto a small rack, then invert it again onto a second rack so that the cake is right side up to complete cooling, 30 minutes more.
  • Meanwhile prepare the Chocolate Marshmallow Frosting , or another frosting that would go well with the flavor of the ice cream in the cake. Place the cake on a serving platter and frost the top of the cake with clean, smooth strokes.

Time 5h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

nonstick cooking spray
1 (15.25 ounce) package devil's food cake mix
1 cup water
½ cup oil
3 large eggs
½ gallon vanilla ice cream, slightly softened
2 cups chopped chocolate sandwich cookies (such as Oreo®)
1 (7.25 ounce) bottle chocolate shell topping (such as Magic Shell®)
2 cups heavy whipping cream
2 cups powdered sugar
decorating icing (optional)
candy sprinkles (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly coat the bottom and sides of two 8-inch round cake pans.
  • Blend cake mix, water, oil, and eggs in a large bowl until moistened. Beat with a mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes. Pour into the prepared cake pans.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 32 to 38 minutes.
  • While the cake layers are baking, line a clean 8-inch round cake pan with plastic wrap, allowing the sides to hang over about 6 inches all the way around. Peel down the sides of the ice cream carton and slice off several big pieces; press them into the prepared cake pan. Wrap plastic over the top of the ice cream and continue to form until it's in an even layer. Freeze for 1 hour.
  • Remove cakes from the oven and cool for 10 to 15 minutes in the pans. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  • Place one cake layer on a freezer-safe plate. Reserve remaining layer for another use (you can freeze it for up to 4 months.)
  • Combine chopped cookies and chocolate topping in a medium bowl. Spread cookie "crunchies" evenly on top of the cake layer. Invert frozen ice cream layer on top of cookie layer with the bottom (smooth side) up. Return to the freezer for 1 hour.
  • Add cream to bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment and whisk on medium speed. Gradually mix in powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Spread icing evenly over cake and freeze for 1 more hour.
  • Decorate cake with icing and sprinkles and return to the freezer for at least 30 minutes (or up to 1 week) before serving.

  • To make sure the cake is completely frozen before serving, freeze it for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
  • When you're ready to serve the cake, let it sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes so that it softens slightly.
  • Garnish the cake with your favorite toppings, such as whipped cream, chocolate chips, or fresh berries.
