Summer Ice Cream Cake

Hello blogger friends! I have created a summer time recipe and have fallen in love! (along with others) It's an ice cream cake :) And it is SO simple to make and there are so many variations you can do! One thing that is VERY important is to use good quality ice cream! I used Breyer's (and even found it on sale!). Use a regular loaf pan and line it with plastic wrap. Then I put softened vanilla ice cream on the bottom, frozen chopped peanut butter cups on top of that, any chocolate cake you like on top of that, then I used peanut butter cup ice cream on the of that. Wrap the whole thing is plastic wrap and freeze at least three hours. Take out of freezer and let sit about 3-5 minutess to help it come out of the pan easier. Flip upside down onto a serving plate. I garnished with more peanut butter cups and chocolate drizzle. Freeze for 20- 30 more minutes and serve! There are endless possibilities with this dessert! Any ice cream you like and any candy you like! Next I want to try a fruit variation. Or maybe strawberry shortcake! Happy summer!!!
