MOCHA CAKE III



Mocha Cake III image

A friend made this for our group and we have been hooked on it ever since. Try it. It's so rich, moist, and easy, you'll be hooked too! Note: I have replaced the sour cream with 16 ounces of plain yogurt, (not fat-free!), with great success. The taste is just as good to me with a lot less fat. However, do not use low-fat or fat-free sour cream, as it will NOT turn out well!

  • Make sure the ice cream is very cold before assembling the Baked Alaskas. This will help prevent the ice cream from melting too quickly.
  • Work quickly when assembling the Baked Alaskas. The meringue can start to melt if it sits out for too long.

  • Serve the Baked Alaskas immediately after baking. They are best enjoyed when the meringue is still warm and gooey.
