for my 8 year old’s birthday last night, we made up this ice cream cake:
- gallon of chocolate marble ice cream, softened
- chocolate syrup
- 2 crunchie chocolate bars by Cadbury (Canada), crushed
- 2 cups of whipped topping
- food coloring, sprinkles, candies, candles, etc.
- In a 10″ springform pan, scoop a 2″ layer of the icecream.
- squeeze 1/4 cup of syrup evenly over the top.
- Sprinkle all chocolate bar crumbs over syrup.
- top with another 2″ of ice cream.
- Freeze.
Before serving:
- Remove from freezer 1/2 hour before serving.
- Mix a couple drops of food coloring with the whipped topping. We used 3 red drops in a whole tub of Cool Whip and it went a medium dark pink.
- Spread Cool Whip over cake. Press randomly into it with the flat side of a spatula, and it will make little meringue-like tops.
- Sprinkle with pretty things!
