Melted ice cream cake is the best!

The recipe starts with a cake mix and takes just minutes to whip up. The kids think it is so cool that ice cream is in the cake mixture. They love to help mix it all together.

We used a white cake mix and vanilla ice cream but the possibilities are endless! This cake is really so fun and easy.

The glaze is just as easy and looks so pretty. The sprinkles are optional but make the cake look so festive. You can change the colors out for different seasons or birthdays or anytime of year!

Ingredients:

white cake mix
melted ice cream – This needs to be measured while melted.
eggs

For the icing:

confectioner’s sugar
milk
sprinkles

How to make melted ice cream cake:

First, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Also, get your pan ready. We used a bundt pan and you need to spray it with cooking spray.

Second, mix the cake mix and eggs with the melted ice cream in a large mixing bowl. Make sure this is well combined.

Next, pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan. Bake for about 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Let the cake cool completely and put it on a serving plate.

Now, let’s make the icing.

Whisk together the confectioner’s sugar and the milk. You may need to adjust the milk until the glaze is the desired consistency.

Finally, drizzle the icing all over the cake. The last thing is to add sprinkles on top. My kids like to help with this part.

Enjoy! Just slice and serve.
