Steps:
- Make the ice cream cake: Brush a 3-quart metal bowl with vegetable oil; line with plastic wrap. Fill the bowl with scoops of the sorbet, vanilla ice cream and half of the chocolate ice cream, alternating small and large scoops to create a mosaic of colors and shapes. Place a piece of plastic wrap on top of the ice cream; press down to close the gaps between scoops and even out the surface. Remove the plastic wrap, sprinkle the ice cream with the wafer crumbs and re-cover with the plastic wrap, pressing gently. Freeze until set, about 30 minutes.
- Remove the wrap and spread the remaining chocolate ice cream in an even layer on top of the crumbs. Cut the pound cake into 1/2-inch-thick slices; completely cover the ice cream with the slices, trimming as needed (you'll use about two-thirds of the cake). Cover with fresh plastic wrap and freeze until firm, at least 2 hours or up to 2 days.
- Make the meringue: Whip the egg whites and cream of tartar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until foamy, about 2 minutes. Gradually beat in the sugar on high speed until the whites are glossy and hold stiff peaks.
- Remove the top layer of plastic wrap, then invert the cake onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. (If necessary, let the cake stand overturned until it slips out.) Remove the rest of the plastic wrap and cover the ice cream completely with the meringue, making the dome-shaped top slightly thicker than the sides. Form swirly peaks in the meringue using the back of a spoon. Freeze for at least 3 more hours.
- Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. Bake the cake until the meringue peaks are golden, about 4 minutes, or brown the meringue with a blowtorch. Let the cake soften at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing. Freeze any leftovers.

BAKED ALASKA
This old-fashioned dessert, which originated at New York City's Delmonico's restaurant to commemorate the purchase of Alaska in 1867, has become popular again, and why not? An ice-cream cake covered with an igloo of meringue emerging from an oven is a real showstopper.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line an 8-inch round cake pan with parchment paper, and spray with cooking spray.

- Place in oven, and bake until meringue just starts to brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from oven, and serve immediately.
BLACK HOLE BAKED ALASKA
Space is dangerous, but also beautiful... and NOW, thanks to this next recipe, it can be delicious as well! So I'm going to get real with you, I got a little sneaky with this recipe... I've made about a gazillion homemade chocolate cakes in my life, but this time I just wasn't in the mood. So I opted for a store-bought fudge bundt cake! Since the recipe calls for freezing the cake, I think the store bought version actually tastes better ':/ Confessions aside, there was no cheating on the showstopper of a dessert. It's just a simple decorated disc of heavenly chocolate resting on top of this traditional Baked Alaska like a halo from space!

Steps:
- For the Black-Hole Chocolate Disc:.
- In addition to the chocolate melts, you will need an airbrushing machine and edible colors, as well as parchment paper.
- Melt chocolate in two pots until completely liquid. Place a circle of parchment on a turn table and pour the darker shade first. Pour the remaining color on top in design of your choosing and use an offset, narrow spatula to create a galaxy design by making spiraled swiping motions from the inside out. Once done, allow to set in a cool room for one hour. Once the chocolate is set, remove from parchment sheet and rest on something with a hole in the center and using a hot blade, cut out a hole in the center. Smooth edges with your finger.
- Mix various galactic colors in an airbrush machine and paint your black hole. I made mine darkest on the outer edges and lightest near the center.
- For the Meringue:.
- In a stand mixer, beat egg whites, salt and cream of tartar until soft peaks form. Drizzle in sugar and vanilla and beat until stiff peaks form.
- Cut off the top of the fudge bundt cake and scoop a layer of your chosen ice cream on top of the ring making sure to leave the hole in the middle. Coat with meringue and torch. Once done chill in freezer until ready to serve. just before serving place the chocolate black hole topper onto the frozen dessert. Serve.

CATHY'S HOLIDAY BAKED ALASKA
This Canadian Living recipe perfect for those occasions when a spectacular dessert is called for. Makes for an awesome dessert. Good any time but a perfect dessert for that holiday meal. I was absolutely intimidated the first time making - don't be - for most part it is one of those marvellous make aheads requiring only a quick assembly, the meringue to be made and a few minutes under the broiler. Served with that wonderful fudge sauce which just takes minutes to reheat, you have yourself one terrific dessert to be serving family and friends. I rather suspect you could use a Brownie mix if pressed for time.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Butter and line a 20cm cake tin. Beat together the butter and sugar using a hand whisk or freestanding mixer, for 5 mins until pale and fluffy. Beat in the vanilla and eggs, then fold through the flour, lemon zest and milk. Spoon the mixture into the tin, smooth over and bake for 18-20 mins until golden and firm to the touch. Leave to cool completely before starting the meringue.
- Whisk the egg whites to stiff peaks in a clean bowl, then add the sugar 1 tbsp at a time while whisking continuously, until you have a thick, glossy mixture that holds its shape when the beaters are lifted away from the bowl. Quickly beat in the vinegar.
- Remove the ice cream from the freezer 10 mins before you assemble to soften slightly. Place the sponge on a serving plate. Spread the jam over the top of the sponge in an even layer. Scoop balls of the ice cream into a mound in the middle of the sponge, leaving a 1-2cm gap of sponge around the edge. Gently smooth the side and top of the ice cream with a palette knife. Spoon and swirl the meringue around the outside of the ice cream and cake base with a large spoon. Use a blow torch to evenly brown the outside of the meringue, if you have one. Cut into wedges to serve.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°. Coat a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with cooking spray; line with parchment paper. In a bowl, combine the boiling water and espresso. Whisk in 1/4 cup cold water, then the oil, whole egg and vanilla.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup granulated sugar, the flour, brown sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Whisk the egg mixture into the flour mixture until just combined. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool completely on a rack, then invert onto a baking sheet. Discard the parchment paper. Line the pan with another piece of parchment paper.
- Using a 2 1/2-inch cutter, cut the cake into 8 rounds and transfer to the prepared baking pan; freeze for 30 minutes. Using a 2-inch-wide ice cream scoop, top each cake with a scoop of sorbet; cover the pan with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 3 hours or overnight.
- In a small saucepan, combine the remaining 1 cup granulated sugar with 1/4 cup water and cook, stirring, over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved. Boil until slightly reduced, about 3 minutes.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites at medium speed until soft peaks form, 1 to 2 minutes. With the mixer on low, drizzle in the sugar syrup, then beat on high speed until the egg whites are stiff and glossy, about 8 minutes. Pipe or spread the meringue over each cake to cover. Freeze for up to 1 hour.
- Preheat the broiler. Broil the meringue-covered cakes until lightly browned, about 2 minutes.
