The name of this recipe is so misleading- I expected for it to be an “ice cream cake”, not a chocolate cake with ice cream. This recipe can be tailored to your needs so easily. Want regular chocolate cake? Buy that mix. Need to go gluten-free? There is a mix for that. You can even make your own from scratch (see a list of cake recipes at the bottom of this post)
CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM CAKE
- 1 package chocolate cake mix ((along with ingredients on package))
- 1 quart vanilla ice cream
- 3 egg whites
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Bake cake, according to box directions, in a rectangular pan.
- Cool and cut in half. (Save second half for another purpose.)
- Place cake on waxed paper on a breadboard.
- Set in freezer to chill.
- Spoon ice cream over cake and chill until firm.
- Beat whites until stiff adding a little salt and vanilla.
- Add sugar gradually continuing to beat.
- Spread over ice cream and place under heated broiler for a very few minutes to brown meringue.
This may be replaced in the freezer for a few minutes if it is necessary.
