Cinnamon And Cream Cheese Icebox Cake Recipes

OLD-FASHIONED ICEBOX CAKE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat heavy cream, powdered sugar, vanilla and salt until stiff peaks form.
• Spread a very thin layer of the whipped cream in the bottom of a 9 x 13-inch dish.
• Place a layer of the graham crackers or chocolate wafers in the bottom of the dish, breaking them as necessary in order to fit.
• Gently spread ¼ of the whipped cream on top of the crackers. Top with a second layer of crackers and then another layer of whipped cream.
• Repeat the layers until you have used a fourth layer of crackers and the final ¼ of the cream.
• Garnish the cake with crushed chocolate grahams, sprinkles, or grated chocolate.
• Cover loosely and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or up to overnight.

CINNAMON CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

Steps:

• Prepare 2 9-inch round cake pans by greasing and flouring them. You may also opt for a 9x13 pan instead. Set aside.
• Sift together the flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.
• In a separate bowl, cream the butter.
• Blend the brown sugar into the butter.
• Beat in eggs, mix until fluffy.
• Add the dry ingredients and the buttermilk to the creamed sugar/butter mixture. Alternate between teh two, adding a little at a time until all ingredients are incorporated.
• Pour batter into greased and floured pans. Bake 30-35 minutes, or until done. Remove from pans and cool.
• In a bowl, beat the frosting ingredients together.
• Frost the cooled cake with cream cheese frosting. Note: There is enough frosting for a 2-layer cake- if you make a sheet pan, you will end up with with leftover frosting, great for frosting some cookies!

RASPBERRY AND PISTACHIO ICE CREAM ICEBOX CAKE

Steps:

• Line a 9x5" loaf pan with plastic wrap, leaving a few inches of overhang on all sides. Chill pan until ready to use. Toast nuts in a dry small skillet over medium heat, tossing occasionally, until golden brown, 5-8 minutes. Let cool, then coarsely chop; set aside.
• Using an electric mixer on medium-high speed, beat cream and powdered sugar in a large bowl until stiff peaks form, about 3 minutes. Place jam in a medium bowl and whisk to loosen, then gently mix in half of whipped cream. Mix vanilla and salt into plain whipped cream.
• Scoop half of vanilla whipped cream into prepared loaf pan and spread into an even layer. Arrange a layer of cookies on top, breaking or cutting to fit as needed. Add half of raspberry whipped cream, smooth into an even layer, and top with another layer of cookies. Dollop ice cream across top and smooth into an even layer. Add a third layer of cookies, followed by remaining raspberry whipped cream. Repeat with a fourth layer of cookies and finally spread remaining vanilla whipped cream over (don't worry if it's a little higher than edges of pan). Scatter reserved pistachios on top. Cover with plastic overhang and freeze until set, at least 6 hours.
• To serve, using plastic overhang, unmold cake (if it's hesitant to come out, run the sides of the pan under warm water for a few seconds to loosen) and cut into slices. Do ahead: Cake can be made 2 days ahead. Keep frozen.
