Categories     dessert

Time 1h35m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Nonstick cooking spray, for the skillet
One 16.25-ounce box white cake mix
1 teaspoon peppermint extract
12 to 14 full-size candy canes
Buttercream Peppermint Frosting, recipe follows
1 pint peppermint ice cream
3 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, at room temperature
3 tablespoons heavy cream
1 teaspoon peppermint extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 10-inch cast-iron skillet with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Prepare the cake mix according to the package's egg white method. Add the peppermint extract and mix to combine. Pour the cake batter into the prepared skillet. Bake until the cake is set and a toothpick inserted comes out clean, 35 to 45 minutes. Let the cake cool until the top of the cake is cool to the touch.
  • Pulse the candy canes in a food processor until you get pea-sized candy, 5 to 6 times. Add 1/2 cup of the crushed candy canes to the Frosting and fold to combine. Frost the cake with the Peppermint Frosting, then sprinkle the remaining crushed candy over the entire cake. Serve slices with scoops of peppermint ice cream.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or using a hand mixer), beat the confectioners' sugar together with the butter until well combined. Add the heavy cream and continue to beat until extremely light and fluffy. Beat in the peppermint extract until combined.

PEPPERMINT CANDY ICE CREAM CAKE



Peppermint Candy Ice Cream Cake image

Design a mint-lover's dream: vanilla ice cream cake loaded with crushed peppermint candies and topped with chocolate ganache and more crushed peppermints.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 5h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more, at room temperature, for the pan
9 ounces chocolate wafer cookies, crushed
16 round hard peppermint candies, finely crushed
2 quarts (8 cups) vanilla ice cream, softened
8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
3/4 cup heavy cream
8 round hard peppermint candies, finely crushed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-inch springform pan and line the bottom with parchment.
  • Combine the melted butter and crushed wafer cookies in a medium bowl. Press the mixture into the bottom and almost up the entire side of the prepared pan. Bake for 10 minutes. Let cool completely before using.
  • Fold the peppermint candies into the ice cream. Scoop the peppermint candy ice cream onto the cookie crust, packing it in tightly. Spread with an offset spatula to make a smooth top. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
  • Unmold the cake by running a knife around the edge, then unhinge the springform and remove. Invert the cake onto a sheet of plastic wrap and remove the bottom of the pan and the parchment. Place a serving plate on the bottom and invert once more. Keep in the freezer until ready to frost.
  • Put the chocolate in a medium heatsafe bowl. Bring the heavy cream to a simmer in a small saucepan. Pour the cream over the chocolate and stir until smooth. Allow to cool 10 minutes before using.
  • Frost the top and sides of the cake with the ganache and top with the crushed peppermint candies. If the cake begins to get too soft, put it back into the freezer for a few minutes.
  • Freeze another 1 1/2 to 2 hours or up to overnight. Let the cake sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes before slicing and serving.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality peppermint extract for the best flavor.
  • Chill the cake layers and ice cream before assembling the cake to make it easier to work with.
  • If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a regular 9-inch cake pan. Just line the pan with parchment paper before adding the batter.
  • To make the chocolate ganache, use a high-quality dark chocolate.
  • Chill the cake for at least 4 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Conclusion:

This peppermint patty ice cream cake is the perfect dessert for any occasion. It's easy to make, delicious, and sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
