Awesome Ice Cream Sandwich Cake Food

ICE CREAM SANDWICH CAKE

Steps:

• Layer 12 ice cream sandwiches in the bottom of a 9 x 13-inch dish. You may need to cut the last ice cream sandwich in half in order to get it to fit in the bottom of the dish.
• Allow to soften for a few minutes and then use a spoon to gently press the ice cream sandwiches down a little bit. You can skip this step if you're using a very deep pan!
• Spread half of the whipped topping over the ice cream sandwiches. Drizzle with chocolate and caramel syrups. Sprinkle with desired toppings.
• Top with another layer of 12 ice cream sandwiches. Spread remaining whipped topping over the ice cream sandwiches. Drizzle with additional chocolate syrup and caramel syrup, if desired. Sprinkle with additional toppings.
• Freeze for about 1-2 hours (or overnight) to give the cake time to firm up before slicing and serving.

ICE CREAM SANDWICH CAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line the bottom of two 8-inch-square metal baking pans with parchment paper and lightly butter the paper. Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt into a bowl, then whisk to combine.
• Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the cocoa powder and whisk until dissolved, about 1 minute. Transfer to a bowl and whisk in both sugars until combined. Add the coffee, buttermilk, egg and vanilla and whisk until smooth. Whisk in the flour mixture until just combined.
• Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool slightly in the pans, then invert onto a rack to cool completely. Transfer the cakes to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, cover with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, about 1 hour.
• Remove the ice cream from the freezer to soften, 10 to 20 minutes. Clean and dry the baking pans, then line each with plastic wrap, leaving a 4-inch overhang on all sides. Scoop all of the ice cream into one of the pans, packing it to make an even 1-inch-thick layer; smooth with a small offset spatula or the back of a spoon. Fold the plastic wrap over the ice cream to cover it, then freeze until solid, at least 1 hour.
• Put 1 frozen cake in the remaining plastic-lined pan. Unwrap the ice cream layer and invert it on top of the cake; remove the plastic wrap. Cover with the remaining cake, pressing gently. Fold the plastic wrap over the cake to cover it and freeze until firm, about 1 hour.
• When ready to serve, unwrap the cake and cut into 9 squares. Cut each square in half to make 2 rectangles or triangles.

AWESOME ICE CREAM SANDWICH "CAKE"

Steps:

• Cookie:.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• In large mixing bowl, combine butter, yogurt, melted chocolate and both sugars.
• Add in eggs, and mix until well blended.
• Add salt and baking soda to the wet mixture, and stir together.
• Begin to add in the flour, doing a cup at a time until both cups are well incorporated.
• Poor in chocolate chips and stir into the dough.
• Using a non-stick 8" spring-form pan, line the bottom with parchment paper. (Place the pan on top of the paper, draw a circle around the outer base, and cut out to fit exactly).
• Drop in (by spoon-fulls) 1/2 or less of the cookie dough, and, with your hands, press down to make an even layer at the bottom of the pan.
• Put in oven for 25-30 minutes (depending on your oven's temp), and bring out to cool, once at desired doneness.
• Once cooled, remove giant cookie from pan, wrap in plastic wrap (to prevent dryness).
• Repeat above directions and make 1 more giant cookie.
• Once second cookie comes out to cool, place ice cream on counter to soften a little.
• Leaving the cooled cookie in the spring-form pan, empty entire pint of ice cream into pan on top of the cookie.
• Spread ice cream evenly over cookie.
• Unwrap first cookie, and place it on top of the ice cream (I do it face down, so that the top is very flat and even. It makes for easier decorating).
• Push cookie down until everything is compacted and firm, cover with plastic wrap, and place back in the freezer.
• Now -- to DECORATE this cake -- the possibilities are endless. You can use powdered sugar to dust the top then drizzle melted chocolate over that, or check out kittencal's great recipe for frosting in my "baking treats" cookbook for some real fun! Also and idea -- add shaved chocolate to the sides. I just left mine plain, but it would add a bit of sophistication, I think.
• Hope you all enjoy!

• Line the bottom and sides of an 8-inch square cake pan with two crisscrossed sheets of foil, leaving an overhang on each side.
• Place a layer of ice cream sandwiches into the bottom of the dish, breaking them as necessary to cover as much of the pan as possible. Scoop the strawberry ice cream onto the sandwiches, then spread evenly with a spatula until the sandwich layer is covered. Add the remaining ice cream sandwiches on top to form another layer. Top with the cookies and cream ice cream and spread evenly. Spread the whipped topping over the top like a frosting, then top with the sprinkles. Freeze for 1 hour.
• Remove the cake from the freezer, then carefully remove the cake from the dish and peel off any foil that has stuck to the bottom and sides. Slice and serve.
