Christmas Ice Cream Cake

  • Author: Chantelle Ellem

Description

This Christmas ice cream cake is a no-bake festive dessert made with ice cream, Maltesers, and white chocolate. Easy, impressive, and perfect for hot Aussie holidays!


Ingredients

Units Scale

3L of ice cream (your favourite flavour, I used mint choc-chip)
2 large packets of Maltesers
200g white chocolate, melted
3 jaffa chocolate balls (I use Darrell Lea)


Instructions

  1. Leave your ice cream out on the kitchen bench for 15 minutes so it goes soft. Put a load of washing on, or go and check the mail.
  2. Place the soft ice cream into a small bowl. It’s a good idea to measure your cake stand, to make sure the cake is going to fit. I used mint choc-chip ice cream because I liked the green for Christmas, but choose your favourite flavour. Or try a few different flavours.
  3. Place in the fridge for at least an hour to set.
  4. Wet a tea towel with boiling hot water, and rub over the outside of the bowl {to release the ice cream from the sides of the bowl}. Turn your ice cream out onto your cake stand. Cover in Maltesers. If you’re working on a hot day, you might need to return the cake to the freezer so it doesn’t melt.
  5. Once completely covered, drizzle with the melted white chocolate and top with the three Jaffas and some cardboard leaves.
