This cake has been trending on the internet lately. Phoodie has a fantastic blog and amazing recipes. I just had to give it a go.
Actually my twin daughters recently celebrated their birthdays and asked me to make this cake to share with their friends. It was a hit.
You could definitely make an adult version by adding a good splash of Baileys Irish Cream which would work a treat and give it that little bit of a kick.
Use a 30cm square cake tin. Serves 16 small portions (it's quite decadent).
9 Golden Gaytime Ice Creams
2 Litres Plain Vanilla Ice Cream
1 packet Marie Biscuits 250grams
Remove the Vanilla Ice Cream from the freezer and allow to soften.
Line the square cake tin with plastic wrap allowing the edges to overlap on the sides. Once you have assembled your cake you will fold these over to enclose.
Carefully remove the ice cream sticks from each of the Golden Gaytimes and place on the bottom of the cake tin. You will have to halve the last one length ways to fit.
Place Marie biscuits in a food processor and pulse until you have rough chunks of biscuit. Do not over process as you want some texture in your biscuits.
Add the biscuits to the Vanilla Ice Cream and stir to combine.
Spoon the ice cream biscuit mixture on top of the Gaytimes in the square tin.
Fold over edges of plastic wrap to enclose and seal.
Place into the freezer for at least 2 hours.
Once set, turn out, remove plastic wrap and dust with icing sugar.
We had the leftovers the day after and it was just as good.
The kids loved this one...Enjoy! (Try it with Baileys....shhhhh!)
