Vanilla Malted Ice Cream Cake Recipes

MALTED VANILLA ICE CREAM

Steps:

• To make the ice cream base: Stir the gelatin into 1/2 cup of cold water in a small bowl; Set the mixture aside (this will bloom into a semi-solid state).
• Heat 2 cups of the milk in a saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally. When the milk begins to steam remove it from the heat. And stir in the gelatin. Stir until the gelatin is fully dissolved.
• Put the malted milk powder into a blender. Add 2 cups of the cold milk. Blend well, stopping to scrape down the sides with a spatula. (If there's no blender handy, just beat the malted milk well into the milk until there are no lumps).
• Pour the malted milk mixture into the ice cream maker. Add the heavy cream and stir. Stirring constantly, mix in the hot milk and gelatin mixture. Add the remaining milk, sugar, vanilla, and salt and stir until the sugar dissolves.
• To freeze the ice cream: Assemble the dasher, position the can lid, put the can in the tub and secure the crank assembly. Turn the crank to make sure everything is put together correctly.
• Find the little hole in the side of the tub near the top of the can. Make sure that the hole is open. Drop about 2 cups of crushed ice into the tub. Sprinkle the ice with 1/2 cup rock salt, evenly covering it. Repeat this process. Now someone should begin turning the crank, which remain in motion until the ice cream is frozen.
• Continue to add ice and salt in the proportion above until you have reached the top level of the can and continue cranking. In about 20 minutes the crank will become very difficult to turn. This indicates that the ice cream is done.
• Remove the crank assembly. Pull the can up a bit in the tub. Wipe the ice and salt from the lid and the top of the can. Remove the lid. Pull up the dasher and scrape it off with a rubber spatula. Most people dig in right at this point and enjoy the ice cream even though it is still a little soft. Others like to remove the can and put it in a freezer (or put the ice cream into smaller containers) and harden the ice cream for a few hours before eating.

CHOCOLATE MALT ICE-CREAM CAKE

• Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean. Cool completely, about 1 hour.
• Spread 1 cup fudge topping over cake; freeze about 1 hour or until topping is firm. In large bowl, mix ice cream and coarsely chopped candies; spread over cake. Freeze about 4 hours or until ice cream is firm.

INCREDIBLE MELTED ICE-CREAM CAKE

Steps:

• Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly mist a 12-cup Bundt pan with vegetable oil spray, then dust with flour. Shake out the excess flour. Set the pan aside.
• Place the cake mix, melted ice cream, and eggs in a large mixing bowl. Blend with an electric mixer on low speed for 1 minute. Stop the machine and scrape down the sides of the bowl with the rubber spatula. Increase the mixer speed to medium and beat 2 minutes more, scraping the sides down again if needed. The batter should look thick and well blended. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with the rubber spatula. Place the pan in the oven.
• Bake the cake until it springs back when lightly pressed with your finger and just starts to pull away from the sides of the pan, 38 to 42 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and place it on a wire rack to cool for 20 minutes. Run a long, sharp knife around the edge of the cake and invert it onto a small rack, then invert it again onto a second rack so that the cake is right side up to complete cooling, 30 minutes more.
• Meanwhile prepare the Chocolate Marshmallow Frosting , or another frosting that would go well with the flavor of the ice cream in the cake. Place the cake on a serving platter and frost the top of the cake with clean, smooth strokes.
