  • 1 container white frosting

  • Optional: pink frosting or other colors for decoration

  • Chocolate ganache or hot fudge sauce (optional)

  • Fresh strawberries or berries for garnish

  • Sprinkles or crushed candy pieces for topping

Instructions

  1. :
    Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Prepare cake batter according to the box instructions. Pour into greased pans and bake for 35–40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool completely.

  2. :
    Soften vanilla ice cream to spreadable consistency. Cut ice cream block to fit cake pan or shape. Press evenly into a springform pan and refreeze for 1–2 hours until firm.

  3. :
    Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread softened ice cream over it evenly. Add second cake layer on top. Optionally frost the cake with a thin layer of softened vanilla ice cream or frosting. Freeze again to set.

  4. :
    Frost the cake with white frosting or buttercream. Add decorative piping, sprinkles, or drizzle chocolate ganache over the top. Garnish with fresh strawberries or other berries.

  5. :
    Keep cake frozen until ready to serve. Remove from freezer 5–10 minutes before slicing for easier cutting. Use a warm knife for clean slices.

Notes

  • Use softened ice cream for easier spreading and layering.

  • Freeze cake well between steps to maintain structure.

  • Customize flavors by using different cake mixes or ice cream varieties.

  • For a classic Baskin Robbins look, use white frosting with pink accents and cherries.
