Neapolitan Ice Cream Cake
This amazing Neapolitan Ice Cream Cake has 7 layers of flavor and texture in one bite. I topped it with whipped cream, chocolate fudge, colorful sprinkles, and of course, maraschino cherries.
Now that summer is here I want to take advantage of the hot weather by eating frozen and refreshing treats. Ice cream cakes have always been a favorite of mine and this one, in particular, has a very cool twist.
Neapolitan cakes are usually made with strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate flavors. I made the cake layers by only using Breyer’s Ice Cream and flour. Just like my 2- ingredient Banana Bread.
Then I topped each layer of cake with their respective flavor of ice cream and that’s how I got my 7 layers: chocolate cake, chocolate ice cream, strawberry cake, strawberry ice cream, and so on. Clever isn’t it?
So basically, this ice cream cake only requires less than 5 ingredients and the flavor is amazing. Check out my cakes before and after going in the oven:
Breyer’s is made with cream and milk from cows not treated with artificial growth hormones. Every little vanilla bean speck you see comes from 100% Rainforest Alliance Certified™ vanilla beans, sustainably farmed in Madagascar.
See how cool they look? I only used Ice Cream and flour. All you need to do is stack ice cream layers upon layers.
I also added some chocolate chips to the bottom layer for an extra fudgy taste, but that’s optional. All I can say is the more the merrier.
