Turn a favorite spring cake into a frozen treat you can enjoy all summer.

Provided by Southern Living Editors

Time 5h

Yield Serves 8 (serving size: 1 cup)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups whole milk
2 cups heavy whipping cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar, divided
3 cups cubed (1/2-in. pieces) angel food cake
1 pound fresh strawberries, diced (3 cups)
Halved fresh strawberries

Steps:

  • Place milk, whipping cream, vanilla, salt, and 3/4 cup of the sugar in a medium saucepan; bring to a simmer over medium. Simmer, whisking constantly, until sugar is dissolved, about 3 minutes. Transfer mixture to a medium-size heatproof bowl. Place a piece of plastic wrap directly on surface of mixture. Chill at least 2 hours or up to 24 hours.
  • Meanwhile, preheat oven to 275°F. Spread cake pieces in an even layer on a small rimmed baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven until lightly toasted, about 30 minutes. Let cool 15 minutes; crumble. Set aside until ready to use or up to 24 hours (wrap tightly with plastic wrap if storing overnight).
  • Place diced strawberries and remaining 1/2 cup sugar in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil over medium. Boil, stirring occasionally, until strawberries begin to break down and sauce slightly thickens, about 10 minutes. Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes or up to 24 hours.
  • Pour chilled milk mixture into frozen freezer bowl of a 2 1/2- to 3-quart electric ice-cream maker. Freeze according to manufacturer's instructions. (Instructions and times may vary.)
  • Spoon half of the ice cream into a freezer-safe container; spoon half of the chilled strawberry sauce over ice cream, and sprinkle with half of the cake crumbles. Repeat layers once using remaining ice cream, strawberry sauce, and cake crumbles. Cover and freeze until firm, about 2 hours. Serve with halved fresh strawberries.

Categories     dessert

Time 8h30m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan
25 golden cream-filled sandwich cookies
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
20 golden cream-filled sandwich cookies
1 cup freeze-dried strawberries
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1.75 liters vanilla ice cream (7 cups), slightly thawed in the refrigerator
3 cups strawberry ice cream, slightly thawed in the refrigerator

Steps:

  • For the crust: Line the base of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper and lightly spray the pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  • To a 12- to 14-cup food processor fitted with the blade attachment, add the sandwich cookies, slightly breaking them up as you add them. Process until the cookies are completely broken up. While the machine is running, slowly stream in the melted butter. The mixture should now resemble wet sand and should hold together when pressed in your hands. Add the mixture to the prepared pan and evenly spread all over the base and about 1/2 inch up the sides. Place the crust in the freezer for 30 minutes. Reserve the food processor bowl to make the shortcake crumbs.
  • For the shortcake crumbs: Reattach the food processor bowl and blade. Add the sandwich cookies, slightly breaking them up as you add them. Add the freeze-dried strawberries. Process the mixture until it's a very fine, cohesive consistency. With the machine running, slowly stream in the melted butter. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and set aside.
  • For the filling: When the crust is frozen, scoop on half of the softened vanilla ice cream. Use a small offset spatula to smooth the ice cream into an even layer. Sprinkle 1 cup of the shortcake crumbs over the ice cream, slightly pressing in to adhere. Freeze for 45 minutes.
  • After 45 minutes, scoop on the softened strawberry ice cream. Use a small offset spatula to smooth the ice cream into an even layer. Sprinkle 1 cup of the shortcake crumbs over the ice cream, slightly pressing to adhere. Freeze for 45 minutes.
  • After 45 minutes, scoop on the remaining vanilla ice cream. Smooth with an offset spatula and top with the remaining shortcake crumbs. Freeze for at least 6 hours and up to overnight.
  • To serve, run a knife or offset spatula around the edge of the cake to loosen it from the pan. Remove the springform ring and slice the cake into wedges.

STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE ICE CREAM SANDWICH CAKE



Strawberry Shortcake Ice Cream Sandwich Cake image

What's better than strawberry shortcake? This chilly strawberry shortcake ice cream cake! It's easily assembled with ice cream sandwiches, vanilla ice cream and lots of fresh strawberries. Just prep, freeze and serve!

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 4h40m

Yield 15 to 20 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

20 vanilla ice cream sandwiches
2 1/4 cups chopped fresh strawberries plus 1 whole strawberry, for garnish
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1.5 quarts (48 ounces) vanilla ice cream
1 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup freeze-dried strawberries
1 snack-size pound cake
1/4 cup strawberry syrup ice cream topping
3 waffle cones

Steps:

  • Line an 8-inch cake pan with plastic wrap so that the plastic overhangs the edges of the pan.
  • Arrange the ice cream sandwiches upright around the circumference of the cake pan. Freeze for 20 minutes.
  • Place 1 cup of the chopped strawberries and the granulated sugar into the bowl of a food processor or a blender. Process until the strawberries are pureed and the sugar is dissolved, about 4 minutes. Cover and refrigerate.
  • Put half of the vanilla ice cream in a large bowl and let soften until spreadable but still very thick. Fold in 1 cup of the chopped strawberries. Remove the pan with the ice cream sandwiches from the freezer and pour half of the ice cream mixture into the center. Next, pour in the sweetened strawberry puree. Pour the remaining half of the softened ice cream on top of the puree; smooth to level. Immediately transfer the cake to the freezer to chill at least 4 hours and up to overnight. Remove the cake by pulling the ends of the plastic wrap upward. Lift the cake from the plastic wrap and place on a serving plate.
  • Whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks. Place the freeze-dried strawberries and pound cake in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until large crumbs form. Spread the heavy cream on the bottom half of the ice cream sandwich cake. Immediately press in the crumb mixture; reserve the leftover crumbs.
  • Top the cake with scoops of the remaining vanilla ice cream. Drizzle with the strawberry syrup and scatter the remaining 1/4 cup chopped strawberries on top. Sprinkle with reserved crumbs. Place the waffle cones on top of three scoops of the ice cream.
  • Serve the cake immediately or transfer to the freezer to store.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe strawberries. This will ensure the best flavor in your shortcake.
  • Make sure your ice cream is softened before using. This will make it easier to spread and will help it melt more evenly into the shortcake.
  • If you don't have a biscuit cutter, you can use a glass or jar to cut out the shortcakes. Just make sure it's about the same size as the biscuits you would make with a cutter.
  • Don't overmix the biscuit dough. Overmixing will make the biscuits tough.
  • Bake the biscuits until they are golden brown. This will ensure that they are cooked through.
  • Let the biscuits cool slightly before assembling the shortcake. This will help prevent the ice cream from melting too quickly.
  • Serve the shortcake immediately. This is when it's at its best.

Conclusion:

This easy ice cream strawberry shortcake is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It's made with fresh, ripe strawberries, homemade biscuits, and creamy ice cream. The shortcake is simple to make and can be assembled in just a few minutes. It's a great way to use up any leftover strawberries you have on hand. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dessert, give this ice cream strawberry shortcake a try.
