COFFEE-PRALINE CRUNCH ICE CREAM CAKE



Coffee-Praline Crunch Ice Cream Cake image

Inspired by butter-pecan ice cream, this cake combines crunchy praline with graham crackers, coffee ice cream and fudge sauce to make an impressive, but easy to assemble dessert. Store-bought pralines are perfect here, but if you can't find them, you can make them from scratch with pantry staples. While they can be a little tricky, even a failed praline tastes great nestled in an ice cream cake, but toffee brickle or even just plain chopped nuts could stand in for the praline, too. While you could certainly buy fudge sauce, it's the one component that is definitely better homemade, just sweet enough and deeply chocolatey. Make a double batch for future sundaes.

Time 5h25m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups/355 milliliters heavy cream
2/3 cup/145 grams light or dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup/70 grams Dutch-process or natural cocoa, sifted
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Nonstick cooking spray
1 1/2 quarts/48 ounces coffee ice cream (about 3 pints)
10 graham crackers (about 6 ounces/160 grams)
2 cups/340 grams chopped store-bought or homemade praline, plus more for serving
3/4 cup/180 milliliters cold heavy cream, whipped to stiff peaks just before serving

Steps:

  • Prepare the fudge sauce: Set a fine-mesh sieve over a medium bowl. In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream, sugar, butter and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until the butter is melted and the sugar has dissolved, about 2 minutes.
  • Whisk in the cocoa powder and cook for another minute or two, whisking occasionally, until the mixture is thick and glossy. Run the sauce through the sieve into the bowl, working out any lumps directly in the sieve. Stir in vanilla. Let cool completely, about 1 hour. (You should have about 2 cups.) About 30 minutes before you assemble the cake, remove the ice cream from the refrigerator to soften.
  • To assemble the cake, spray a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan lightly with nonstick cooking spray. (This is just to help keep the plastic in place.) Press plastic wrap into the pan, making it as smooth as possible against the bottom and sides of the pan, leaving a 3-inch overhang on each of the two long sides.
  • Spread one third of the softened ice cream (about 2 cups) evenly over the bottom of the pan. (If your ice cream is still too firm to spread, cut it into slices, arrange them in a layer and smooth using an offset spatula.) Lay 3 crackers over the top, breaking them to fit as needed. Top with 1/3 of the fudge sauce (about ⅔ cup), using an offset spatula to spread evenly, and half of the praline, patting into an even layer. Top with another 1/3 of the ice cream, 3 more crackers, 1/3 more fudge sauce and the remaining praline. Finish with the remaining 1/3 of ice cream and 4 more crackers. Use the plastic overhang to wrap the cake up tightly and freeze until firm, at least 4 hours and preferably overnight.
  • To serve, unwrap the plastic wrap, then quickly rub the outside of the pan with a warm, moistened kitchen towel to loosen. Flip out onto a serving plate and remove the plastic wrap. Top with whipped cream and more chopped praline. Cut slices with a knife dipped in hot water. (If too hard to slice, let sit for a few minutes to soften.) Serve with the remaining fudge sauce, warmed, if desired.

PRALINE GRAHAM CRACKERS



Praline Graham Crackers image

This is so reminiscent of pralines - and soooo easy.

Provided by Rosette Rooney @NewOrleansLisa

Categories     Crackers

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 1/2 cup(s) butter
1 cup(s) sugar
2 cup(s) pecans, chopped
2 package(s) graham crackers

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
  • Melt butter, sugar and pecans in a pot with a pouring lip. When completely melted cook for 3 minutes.
  • Lay out graham crackers on a half sheet pan. It will not hold both sleeves of crackers, so do what I do and eat the rest. Try to fill the pan as much as possible, breaking the crackers from 4 to 1.
  • Pour pecan mixture over crackers as evenly as possible. (It won't be even, but it'll be good).
  • Bake at 300 degrees for 12 minutes. Cool, break apart and eat immediately or store in tins or bags. If using tins, I put tissue paper in first, just to offset the crackers from the sides of the tins. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Work quickly: Pralines set up quickly, so it's important to work quickly while they're still warm and pliable.
  • Use a candy thermometer: A candy thermometer is essential for making pralines. It will help you to ensure that the sugar syrup reaches the correct temperature before adding the butter and cream.
  • Be careful not to overcook the sugar syrup: Overcooked sugar syrup will be too thick and will not set up properly.
  • Add the butter and cream slowly: Add the butter and cream to the sugar syrup slowly and carefully, stirring constantly. This will help to prevent the mixture from curdling.
  • Stir until the mixture thickens: Stir the mixture until it thickens and begins to pull away from the sides of the pan. This will take about 5-7 minutes.
  • Drop the pralines onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet: Drop the pralines onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, spacing them out evenly.
  • Let the pralines cool completely: Let the pralines cool completely before eating them. They will harden as they cool.

Conclusion:

Graham cracker pralines are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They're perfect for parties, potlucks, or bake sales. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make these delicious candies at home. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these graham cracker pralines a try!
