I love ice Cream cake. Mine didn't come out as pretty as I would have liked because, after making the swiss rolls (you could buy them - to make it easier), I filled them with a little too much cream. We had to also make the vanilla ice cream, the chocolate ice cream and the hot fudge....deeeeeelicious! I added some orange zest to the vanilla ice cream and it tasted like a creamsicle. I almost stopped there - contemplating just eating all the ice cream - but I continued on with the challenge - and it was worth it.
The July 2010 Daring Bakers’ challenge was hosted by Sunita of Sunita’s world – life and food. Sunita challenged everyone to make an ice-cream filled Swiss roll that’s then used to make a bombe with hot fudge. The recipe for this month’s challenge has been adapted from the Swiss Swirl Ice Cream Cake from the Taste of Home. Slices of Swiss roll are used to line a bowl and then filled with vanilla ice-cream, hot fudge ice cream topping and chocolate ice cream.
Here is the recipe!
Until we bake again...

looks delicious mom :)
I should have been one of your taste testers on this...mmmmmmm....
I love the idea of adding orange zest to the vanilla ice cream! And the generous dose of chocolate on top. There are very few things that chocolate can't fix, aren't there? Great work!!
Elliot - I saved some for you!
Carl - I will remember that for the next challenge :)
Ruth - Thanks! yes the orange zest was darn good in the vanilla ice cream!
I was LUCKY enough to not only have the cake (and eat it too) on the day it was created BUT to also have it again the next night! Even as "leftovers" this cake rocked - every morsel of it!
I think it looks mighty pretty :) Good work, fellow baker!
What a lovely blog!
So glad I stumbled across you.
