Yield serves 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 11

for the crust
12 chocolate graham-cracker sheets, crushed (about 2 1/3 cups)
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons espresso powder
Pinch kosher salt
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
for the filling
1 quart coffee ice cream
2 cups heavy cream
2 tablespoons sugar
1 cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Grind together the graham crackers, sugar, espresso powder, and salt in a food processor to make fine crumbs. Add the melted butter with the processor running, and pulse just to combine. Press the crumbs into the bottom and up the sides of a buttered 8-inch pie plate, making sure the crumbs are evenly distributed. Bake the crust until crispy, about 10 to 12 minutes, then cool completely before filling.
  • Remove the ice cream from freezer to soften a bit while you make the whipped cream. Whip the cream and sugar in a mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, to form soft peaks. Add the sour cream, and whisk until just combined.
  • Spread the ice cream in an even layer over the crust. Dollop the whipped-cream mixture on top, and spread upward to a dome shape. Freeze overnight, or until the cream is frozen. To serve, cut with a sharp knife dipped in hot water.

I'm a professional baker and I have to say, this cappuccino cake is one of the best I've ever tasted. It's moist, flavorful, and the frosting is to die for.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.
