This recipe was great! I made it for my son's b-day. I did make some changes. I used a chocolate fudge cake mix in 2-9" round cake pans, seperating the layers into four total. I used chocolate chip ice cream on outside layers and one layer in the middle of chocolate chip mint ice cream. Used the icing. It was great!

I made this with confetti cake mix and two different ice creams. It turned out as well as a store bought cake and far cheaper! To divide the two layers into four layers, I put 8 toothpicks in and cut it with a long bread knife. I slid the top layer onto a cookie sheet (no sides) until I needed it. For the ice cream, I made it easier to spread by beating it with my electric mixer before spreading it. I did this straight from the freezer and it worked great. Make sure you have a level place in the freezer after it is all assembled--mine slid slightly to one side and froze that way. After the cake and ice cream were frozen really well, I iced it with a buttercream frosting and let that freeze . Wonderful--a hit with my family!

I made this with chocolate cake and cookies and cream ice cream. I ran into a major problem- I think I didn't let the cakes cool enough before assembling them with the ice cream. I found a HUGE mess in the freezer a few hours after putting it all together. The ice cream had run everywhere, presumably because the cakes were too warm, despite being in the freezer. But, I salvaged what I could and everyone raved about the taste! Just a warning for future makers of this cake!

My family loved this cake and requested I make it again soon. I used Cool Whip for the frosting and baked the angel food cake from a mix. I froze the baked cake slightly to make it easier to cut.

WOW! What an awesome cake! Mine did not come close to looking as pretty as that picture but it doesn't really matter. This is very simple to make. I had a little bit of a problem getting the right consistency when layering the ice cream. My ice cream seemed to thaw too much and run when layering. DON'T WORRY if it looks messy while layering. I found if it gets too runny, throw it in the freezer. The frosting will cover the messiness up. I used strawberry and chocolate ice cream and also bought some hot fudge and spread it over the top layer of the cake before frosting. My family loved this and I got rave reviews. Thanks!

Difficult assembly due to ice cream melting and cutting into an Angel Food cake 3 times horizontally. The flavor was good, but the cake doesn't keep it's shape well. The cream on the outside gets harder than the ice cream upon freezing, so it cracks when you cut into it and the ice cream melts quickly. Again, the flavor was good, but I will not make it again, unless I substitute a white cake.

I just made a variation of this cake for my daughter's 4th birthday. She loves pink and strawberries, so I bought a strawberry angelfood cake and strawberry ice cream and layered them. Then, I iced it with strawberry Cool Whip. It was very easy, very pink, and tasted very good.
