How to Make Ice Cream Birthday Cake

1. Prepare the Pan and Platter

Line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with aluminum foil, ensuring that it hangs over the edges for easy removal later. Place your serving platter in the refrigerator to chill.

2. Layer the Brownies

Use a serrated knife to cut the salted brownies into pieces that will fit snugly in the bottom of the prepared pan. Arrange them evenly to form the first layer of the cake.

3. Add the Vanilla Ice Cream

Soften the vanilla ice cream slightly, then use a spatula to spread it evenly over the brownie layer. Smooth it out until it forms a nice, even layer.

4. Create a Brownie Barrier

Add another layer of brownies on top of the vanilla ice cream, pressing them down gently to ensure they stick.

5. Spread the Strawberry Ice Cream

Next, soften the strawberry ice cream and spread it over the brownie layer, creating a smooth, even surface.

6. Top with More Brownies and Freeze

Complete the assembly by adding a final layer of brownies on top. Cover the cake with foil and place it in the freezer for at least 3 hours to set.

7. Whip the Cream

In a large bowl, combine the heavy cream, confectioners’ sugar, and vanilla extract. Use a mixer to beat the mixture until stiff peaks form.

8. Unmold the Cake

Remove the cake from the freezer and carefully invert it onto the chilled serving platter. Gently peel away the foil.

9. Decorate with Whipped Cream

Quickly spread the whipped cream over the entire cake using a spatula. Let your creativity shine by adding crushed nuts, sprinkles, maraschino cherries, or candies for decoration.

10. Final Freeze

Place the decorated cake back in the freezer for at least 6 hours, or ideally overnight, to ensure it’s fully set.

11. Serve the Cake

When ready to serve, cut the cake into slices and enjoy this layered masterpiece with friends and family.
