Ice Cream Cakes make a perfect
summertime dessert.
Banana-Toffee Ice Cream Cake
1 chocolate pound cake (1lb.)
3 bananas
bottled caramel topping
1 1/2 qts. butter-pecan ice cream
3 chocolate covered toffee bars
whip cream
Garnish: more caramel syrup, chopped toffee bars
Trim off the ends of the pound cake. Cut the cake into 12 slices, each 1/2 inch
thick. Cut a pie-shaped wedge from each slice. Reserve trimmings. Wrap wedges
and set aside.
Cover the bottom of a 8 inch spring-form pan with the crumbs. Press them
together to make an even bottom.
Scatter the bananas over the bottom. Drizzle with the caramel sauce. Cover and
freeze until the bananas are frozen.
Spread 1/2 of the ice cream over the bananas. Sprinkle with the chopped toffee
bars. Top with remaining ice cream. Freeze until firm. Arrange the cake wedges
over the top of the ice cream, points toward the center. Freeze until solid.
To serve, remove sides from pan. Place cake on a serving plate. Decorate the
cake with the garnishes.
