Baskin Robbins Ice Cream Cake
Cake
1 box white cake mix
1 1/4 cups water
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 egg whites
1/2-gallon box pralines and cream ice cream
4 cups (2 pints) vanilla ice cream
1 12-ounce container white frosting
Optional
colored frosting
A sharp bread knife makes box slicing easy
Ice cream on top of the cake, and all the trimming
1. Make your cake following the directions on the box.
If you are making the white cake you will likely blend
the cake mix with water, oil, and 3 eggs. Pour the batter
into a greased 9 x 13-inch baking pan and bake at 350 degrees
for 30 to 35 minutes. This will make a thin cake for our bottom
layer. When cake is done, let it cool to room temperature.
2. When the cake has cooled, carefully remove it from the
pan and place it on a wax paper-covered cookie sheet, or a
platter or tray that will fit into your freezer.
3. Use a sharp serrated knife (a bread knife works great)
to slice the ice cream lengthwise through the middle, box
and all, so that you have two 2-inch thick sheets of ice cream.
Peel the cardboard off the ice cream and lay the halves next
to each other on the cake. Slice the edges of the cake all
the way around so that the cake is the same size as the ice
cream on top. Work quickly so that the ice cream doesn't melt.
When the cake has been trimmed, place it into the freezer
for an hour or two.
4. When you are ready to frost the cake, take the two pints
(4 cups) of vanilla ice cream out of the freezer for 20 to 30
minutes to soften. Sitr the ice cream so that it is smooth,
like frosting. Use a frosting knife or spatula to coat your
cake with about 2 cups of ice cream. Cover the entire surface
thoroughly so that you cannot see any of the cake or ice cream
underneath. Pop the cake into the freezer for an hour or so
to set up.
5. When the cake has set, fill a pastry bag (with a fancy tip)
with white frosting to decorate all around the top edge of the
cake. Also decorate around the bottom of the cake. Use colored
frosting and different tips to add inspired artistic flair and writing on the cake, as needed. Cover the cake with plastic wrap and keep it in your freezer until party time.
6. When you are ready to serve the cake, leave it out for 10
minutes before slicing. Cut the cake with a sharp knife that
has been held under hot water.
Makes 1 large cake (16 - 20 servings).
Tidbits
You may wish to use another flavor cake mix such as chocolate
or devil's food for this dessert - even low-fat cake mix works.
It's up to you. Just follow the directions on the box for making
the cake in a 9 x 13-inch baking pan.
You can also use any flavor of ice cream. Just be sure to get
it in a box.

Roadhouse Cheese Wraps
8 thin slices monterey jack cheese
8 thin slices cheddar cheese
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and diced
1 teaspoon minced fresh chives
4 large spring roll wrappers
1 beaten egg
6 to 10 cups vegetable oil
On the side
Marinara (pasta) sauce
Slice the cheese real thin, add peppers and chives, roll
it all up and give it a good squeeze before wrapping
1. Use a sharp knife to make 8 thin slices each from the
end of standard-size hunks of cheddar and monterey jack cheeses.
2. Arrange 2 slices of cheddar and 2 slices of jack on your hand,
then sprinkle about 1 teaspoon of diced jalapeno on top of the
cheese. Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon of minced chives on next. Sandwich
the peppers and chives between the cheese and roll it all up.
Fold the cheese and squeeze it all together so that the peppers
and chives are well sealed into the middle of the cheeses.
3. Lay a spring roll wrapper with one corner pointing away from
you. Arrange the cheese lengthwise on the center of the wrapper.
4. Fold one of the side corners over the cheese filling. Brush a
little beaten egg on the tip of the other side corner and fold it
over the first corner so that it sticks. Brush some beaten egg on
the corner pointing away from you. Fold the bottom corner up and
over the filling. Roll the wrapper up, keeping it tight, until it
rolls over the top corner with the egg on it. It should stick.
Repeat with the remaining rolls, then cover them all and chill
for at least 30 minutes. This will be long enough to heat up the
oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees.
5. When the oil is hot, fry the rolls for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes or
until the outside is golden brown. Drain the rolls on a rack or
paper towels for 2 minutes before serving with your favorite
marinara sauce on the side for dipping.
Serves 2.
