Best Orange Sherbet Ice Cream Cake With Sugar Cookies And Lemon Whipped Cream Frosting Recipes

ORANGE CREAMSICLE ICE CREAM CAKE

Steps:

• Uncover the orange sherbet and vanilla ice cream and let sit at room temperature while you prepare the crust. Cover the bottom of an 8-by-2-inch springform pan with a layer of vanilla wafers (see Tip). Break up cookies to fill any big holes.
• Using a soup spoon, scoop small, alternating spoonfuls of the orange sherbet and vanilla ice cream and place them randomly on top of the cookies (imprecision is good here). Gently press the ice cream down with the back of the spoon and tap the pan on the counter to fill in the pan and remove any air bubbles. Continue until you've used all the ice cream, then spread the top into an even layer. To create decorative swoops on top, press down into the cake with the back of the spoon and move it up and out in circular motions to create swirls and peaks all over.
• Cover the cake with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, at least 2 hours or up to 1 week. To serve, quickly rub the side and bottom of the pan with a warm, moistened kitchen towel to loosen. Unmold the springform and transfer the cake to a serving plate.

VANILLA-ORANGE ICE CREAM CAKE WITH VANILLA WHIPPED CREAM FROSTING

Steps:

• For the ice cream cake: Butter a 9-inch springform pan and line it with a parchment paper circle. Cover the bottom of the pan with the ladyfingers. Top with the marshmallow creme, spreading it to coat.
• Scoop the ice cream and sherbet onto the marshmallow layer, packing it in tightly and alternating the scoops to create a marbled or checkerboard effect. Spread with an offset spatula to make a smooth top. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
• Unmold the cake by running a knife around the edge of it, then unhinge the springform and remove. Invert the cake onto a sheet of plastic wrap and remove the bottom of the pan and the parchment. Place a plate on the bottom and invert once more.
• For the vanilla whipped cream frosting: Add the heavy cream, confectioners' sugar and vanilla to a large bowl and whip with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. This makes enough frosting to cover the top and sides of the cake with additional to pipe decorations if desired.
• Frost the top and sides of the cake with the whipped cream frosting. Drizzle with caramel sauce. If the cake begins to get too soft, put it back into the freezer for a few minutes.
• Freeze another 1 1/2 to 2 hours or overnight. Before serving, let the cake sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes.
