I made this cake for Mardi Gras and to say that my boys inhaled it would be an understatement. Seriously. They inhaled it and they aren’t even huge cake fans, especially when there’s not any icing involved. What I loved about this cake is all the possibilities. It’s just three things: cake mix, ice cream and eggs, but you could make it with strawberry ice cream and vanilla cake mix or cinnamon ice cream and chocolate cake mix and the list goes on and on and on.
Ingredients:
1 box cake mix (18.25 oz) in any flavor
1 pint ice cream, soft, but not totally melted
3 eggs
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Grease cake pan liberally with cooking spray and flour.
Mix the cake mix, eggs and ice cream together and beat for 2 minutes on medium speed.
Follow box for baking times. Time will vary based on type of pan you use. I used a bundt cake pan.
Let cool and remove from pan.
Allow to cool on wire rack.
If you want to use a glaze on it (which I highly recommend)…
Ingredients:
1/4 cup milk
2 cups powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla
Instructions:
In medium saucepan combine ingredients with a whisk over low heat.
Stir until glaze is smooth.
Pour over cake. Most of the glaze will run off. I always put the cake on a cooling rack and put a cookie sheet underneath since I made a bundt cake and had to take it out of the pan anyways.
What did the family think? They inhaled it.
Where did this recipe come from? Cookies and Cups
