Cake And Berries With Melted Ice Cream Sauce Recipes

BERRIES-AND-CHERRIES ICE CREAM CAKE

Steps:

• Combine vodka and 1/3 cup sugar; gently stir in cherries and berries. Let stand 2 hours, stirring occasionally; or refrigerate, covered, up to 12 hours. Strain (reserving syrup for another use).
• Pulse wafers in a food processor until finely ground. Add butter and 1/2 teaspoon salt; pulse until mixture has the texture of wet sand. Press half of mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan; freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Temper cherry ice cream in the refrigerator until it has the texture of soft-serve, about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, beat cream with remaining 1/3 cup sugar to soft peaks. Stir two thirds of whipped cream (refrigerate the remainder) into cherry ice cream just to combine. Pour ice cream mixture over crust; smooth top and freeze until firm, about 1 hour.
• Top with remaining crumb mixture; press to lightly pack. Freeze 20 minutes. Meanwhile, temper vanilla ice cream in the refrigerator about 20 minutes, then stir into remaining whipped cream just to combine. Fold in half of cherry-berry mixture. Spread over crumb mixture, smooth top, and sprinkle with remaining berry-cherry mixture. Cover and freeze at least 4 hours and up to 2 days.
• Melt chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over (not in) a pot of boiling water. Let cool until no longer hot but still pourable, about 10 minutes. Run a thin-bladed knife between cake and sides of pan to loosen; remove sides. Run knife between bottom of cake and pan; transfer to a cake plate. Drizzle chocolate evenly over cake; top with whole cherries and berries.
• Return to freezer until chocolate hardens, 2 to 3 minutes; or freeze, loosely covered, up to 8 hours. Slice into wedges using a sharp knife dipped in hot water (if cake is too firm to slice, let temper in the refrigerator 10 to 15 minutes first).

CINNAMON BUN MELTED ICE CREAM CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Thoroughly grease a 12-cup bundt pan with the butter, making sure to cover the entire inner surface. Sprinkle the flour over the butter and shake the pan to create an even layer of flour. Shake out any excess.
• Whisk together the cake mix, ice cream and eggs in a large bowl until well combined; pour into the prepared bundt pan. Bake until a cake tester comes out clean and the sides of the cake are beginning to pull away from the edge of the pan, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool the cake in the pan for 20 minutes, then place a cooling rack over the pan and invert the cake onto the rack. Cool completely.
• Microwave the cream cheese in a microwave-safe container in 10 second increments, stirring between each, until pourable. Make the glaze by whisking together the cream cheese, confectioners' sugar and milk in a small bowl until smooth. Drizzle over the top of the cake so the glaze covers the top and runs down the sides.
