Ice Cream Fudge Recipes

COPYCAT DAIRY QUEEN ICE CREAM CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.
• 2. Combine the Oreo crumbs and melted butter and stir until well combined. Spread the crumbs evenly onto the prepared cookie sheet.
• 3. Bake for 8-10 minutes, then allow to cool. Use your fingers to break any big clumps into smaller ones. Set aside.
• 4. Line an 8×3 inch cake pan* with clear wrap that covers the bottom and goes above the sides of the cake pan. I used two pieces.
• 5. About 20 minutes before you need it, set the chocolate ice cream out to soften. Add the softened chocolate ice cream to the prepared cake pan and spread into an even layer. Freeze for 30 minutes.
• 6. To make the fudge layer, add the chocolate chips, corn syrup and vanilla extract to a medium sized bowl.
• 7. Heat the heavy whipping cream just until it begins to boil, then pour it over the chocolate chips. Allow to sit for 2-3 minutes, the whisk until smooth.
• 8. Remove the cake pan with the chocolate ice cream from the freezer, then pour the chocolate fudge over the ice cream and spread into an even layer. Freeze for about 10 minutes.
• 9. Add the cookie crumbles to the top of the fudge layer, then freeze for about 2 hours, until mostly firm.
• 10. About 20 minutes before you need it, set the vanilla ice cream out to soften. Add the vanilla ice cream to the top of the cake, then freeze until firm, 2-3 hours.
• 11. Use the clear wrap to lift the frozen cake out of the pan, then place it on a cardboard cake circle or a serving plate. Set it back in the freezer.
• 12. To make the whipped cream, add the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar and vanilla extract to a large mixer bowl. Whip on high speed until stiff peaks form.
• 13. Frost the cake with the whipped cream and decorate as desired. I used Ateco tip 844 for piping the borders.
• 14. Freeze the cake until ready to serve. Cake is best when stored well covered and eaten within 4-5 days.

FUDGE ICE-CREAM DESSERT

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Line bottom and sides of 13x9-inch pan with foil, leaving foil overhanging at 2 opposite sides of pan. Grease or spray bottom only of foil.
• In large bowl, mix cake mix, butter and eggs with spoon until blended (batter will be very thick). Using greased fingers, spread or pat in pan. Bake 18 to 21 minutes or until surface appears dry and is no longer shiny. Run knife around side of cake to loosen. Cool completely in pan, about 1 hour.
• Spread warmed fudge topping over cake; sprinkle with 1 cup of the chopped cookies. Freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Spread ice cream over cookies. Cover and freeze at least 4 hours or overnight until firm. Sprinkle with remaining 1 cup chopped cookies. Let stand 15 to 20 minutes before serving. For easier cutting, remove from pan, using foil to lift. Store covered in freezer.

• In a medium pot, combine corn syrup, 1/4 cup cream, butter, granulated sugar, cocoa, and pinch of salt; bring to a boil, whisking, over medium-high. Remove from heat and let fudge sauce cool. Meanwhile, remove 1 pint ice cream from freezer and let soften, about 15 minutes.
• Evenly press softened ice cream into pan. Top with a single layer of graham crackers, breaking to fit. Drizzle with 1/4 cup fudge sauce and freeze 15 minutes. Repeat twice, omitting sauce on final layer. Wrap in plastic and freeze until firm, 8 hours (or up to 3 days). Cover and refrigerate remaining fudge sauce.
• To serve, invert pan and run under tepid water to loosen cake. Invert onto a platter and remove plastic. Microwave fudge sauce in 30-second increments until pourable. Pour over cake and freeze to solidify, 5 minutes.
• In a large bowl, using a mixer, whip 1 1/2 cups cream and confectioners' sugar on high until stiff peaks form, 3 to 5 minutes. Dollop cake with whipped cream and dust with cocoa. Serve immediately.

CHOCOLATE FUDGE SAUCE

Steps:

• Place the chopped dark chocolate and cocoa powder in a heatproof bowl over simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water) and heat until the chocolate has melted.
• With the pan off the heat, stir in the golden syrup, followed by the heavy cream, confectioner's sugar, vanilla, and pinch of salt.
• Transfer to a glass jar or heatproof container with a lid, and serve over the ice cream of your choice. Can be stored in the refrigerator for a few days (that is, if you're not sharing!). Re-warm before serving.

ICE CREAM FUDGE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Prepare an 8x8 pan by lining it with aluminum foil and spraying the foil with nonstick cooking spray . Take the ice cream out of the freezer to be thawing while you melt the chocolate.
• Place the chopped chocolate in a large microwave-safe bowl and microwave until it is nearly melted. Stir after every 30 to 40 seconds to help it melt evenly and keep it from overheating.
• When the chocolate is nearly all melted, stop heating it and instead stir it until the remaining bits melt and everything is smooth.
• The chocolate should be melted and warm, but not hot to the touch, and the ice cream should be melted and soft along the edges, but not liquefied. Add the ice cream to the chocolate and stir until the ice cream is incorporated. The cold ice cream will cause the chocolate to get hard, and you will probably have a clumpy chocolate mixture with lots of hard chocolate bits in it. That's okay!
• Return the bowl to the microwave for another 30 seconds. After 30 seconds, stir well. The hard chocolate pieces should have melted and smoothed out, but if you still have a few stubborn chocolate chunks, microwave it again in 10 to 15-second intervals, just until the chocolate smooths out. At the end of the process, you should have a shiny, smooth liquid fudge.
• Pour the fudge into the prepared pan and smooth it into an even layer. Allow the fudge to set at room temperature for at least 4 hours, or in the refrigerator for at least an hour.
• When the fudge is completely set, remove it from the pan using the foil as handles. Peel the foil away, and use a large sharp knife to cut the fudge into small squares to serve.
