Mmm-Mmm Ice Cream Cake
Share recipe
Description
I have been making this for our daughters for their birthday cakes for a long time. It beats store-bought cake any day!
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup butter, melted
- 1 cup brown sugar
- ½ cup sliced almonds
- 1 cup sweetened flaked coconut
- 1 cup high-protein crisp rice and wheat cereal (such as Kellogg's® Special K®) - crushed
- ½ gallon vanilla ice cream, softened
- 1 (6 ounce) package chocolate chips
- ¾ cup light corn syrup
- ½ cup evaporated milk
Directions
- 1. Mix melted butter, brown sugar, almonds, coconut, and crushed cereal together in a bowl until thoroughly combined and crumbly. Press half the mixture into a 9x13-inch dish; reserve remaining mixture.
- 2. Smooth the ice cream in an even layer over the crust. Sprinkle top with remaining cereal mixture.
- 3. In a saucepan, combine the chocolate chips, corn syrup, and evaporated milk over low heat until the chocolate chips have melted; stir the mixture until combined and smooth. Heat to a bare simmer, and cook, stirring constantly, until the syrup has thickened, 5 to 10 minutes. Allow to cool for about 10 minutes, then drizzle syrup over the top of the cake. Freeze the cake until firm, at least 2 hours; remove about 15 minutes before serving.
