This is made in a 13x9 pan and I leave it in the pan and allow it to sit out for 20-30 minutes before I slice it up. It makes a lot and even with friends over, we've never eaten all the way through it, so I just pop the pan back in the freezer to finish up at a later time. <br /><br />I've learned the hard way that when assembling, I need to have the ice cream really soft, and then I freeze it before I add the whipped topping. Otherwise it's a mess.

It reminds me a little of icebox cakes, although those aren't made with ice cream, but some sort of plain cookie, like vanilla wafers. Anyway, you spread whipped cream on vanilla wafers, stacking them, making a tower. Then you turn the tower on its side and spread the whole thing with more whipped cream and refrigerate overnight. The whipped cream softens the cookies up so they're cake-like. Very good and very easy.<br />Thanks for sharing your version of an ice cream cake.Lilinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-9451291779787922082022-05-03T16:30:21.684-07:002022-05-03T16:30:21.684-07:00Hi Live and Learn,

I agree, they are quite good and much improved over standard grocery store cakes, with the mousse filling. That's good to hear that they're quite affordable per serving when feeding a large group.

It was delicious and so moist with the mousse layer in the middle and they decorated it nicely.

I have a recipe that I've used a few times--it isn't really a cake--it's crushed Oreos mixed with butter for the crust, a layer of ice cream, a layer of frozen whipped topping, a layer of hot fudge (or whatever flavor you want--I've used caramel instead upon occasion) and some of the Oreo crumbs on top. Always a hit and it's much much more economical. Lili, your cake dessert sounds yummy and I would have happily shared it with you! :)Krisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-17590018585808462942022-05-03T09:40:16.611-07:002022-05-03T09:40:16.611-07:00Alice, did your mom pass away or are you planning ...Alice, did your mom pass away or are you planning ahead for the funeral?

Oh, I remember an ice cream cake that I made that was the first time I made it. I sliced a 9 x 13 cake horizontally then put the ice cream in the middle. I remember the mess of trying to get the top half on and it broke several times so I had to piece it together. It still was a bit hit and delicious! Next time I should probably just stay with a simpler version! I also remember going to Cold Stone to buy an ice cream cake but it was inside a casino that was full of cigarette smoke and ended up not buying it because I thought the cake might taste like cigarettes.Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06024364480893258511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-12445050276853637812022-05-03T04:31:35.723-07:002022-05-03T04:31:35.723-07:00We have had Dairy Queen cakes in the past, but the...We have had Dairy Queen cakes in the past, but they cost about 1/3 the cost of a present day one. I am surprised at the cost. I like the cookie crumble layer on the Dairy Queen Cake, but I would like the hot fudge even better. BTW, we had a party over the weekend and got a layer cake from Costco and it turned out to be 42 cents/serving. The cakes are quite good with a mousse layer between cake layers and custom decoration. However, unless you have a crowd, it's way more cake than you would need.

I think we will have to have one the next special occasion. I also plan to try your hot fudge sauce for other uses. It actually sounds pretty easy. And I like easy plus affordable.
