Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- ¾ cup unsalted butter softened
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 pint of vanilla ice cream softened slightly
- 1 pint of chocolate ice cream softened slightly
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tbsp powdered sugar
- Sprinkles or chocolate chips optional, for topping
Instructions
Preheat the Oven
- Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease the cake pan and line it with parchment paper. This prevents sticking.
Mix the Dry Ingredients
- In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk lightly to mix evenly.
Cream Butter and Sugar
- In a large bowl, beat softened butter and sugar until fluffy. This adds lightness to your cake.
Add Eggs and Vanilla
- Beat in eggs one at a time. Add vanilla extract and mix well for smooth batter.
Combine with Dry Ingredients
- Gradually add dry ingredients to the butter mixture. Alternate with milk. Mix until smooth, without overmixing.
Pour Batter into Pan
- Transfer batter into the prepared pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake the Cake
- Bake for 15–20 minutes. Check with a toothpick. If it comes out clean, the cake is ready.
Cool Completely
- Let the cake cool on a wire rack. This prevents ice cream from melting when layering.
Prepare Ice Cream Layer
- Spoon softened vanilla ice cream over the cooled cake. Spread evenly with a spatula. Freeze for 30 minutes.
Add Chocolate Ice Cream
- Spoon softened chocolate ice cream over the vanilla layer. Smooth carefully. Freeze again for 1 hour.
Whip the Cream
- In a bowl, whip heavy cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
Frost the Cake
- Spread whipped cream over the ice cream layer. Cover all sides evenly.
Decorate
- Add sprinkles or chocolate chips on top. Make it colorful and fun.
Freeze Before Serving
- Freeze the cake for 2–3 hours before serving. This helps layers set perfectly.
Slice and Serve
- Use a warm knife for clean slices. Enjoy immediately or store in freezer.
Notes
- Use any ice cream flavor you like for a unique twist.
- Add crushed cookies between layers for extra crunch.
- Swap whipped cream with frosting for a richer taste.
- Let the ice cream soften slightly for easier spreading.
- Freeze in a shallow container for faster freezing.
