Oreo Ice Cream Cake From Scratch Video Recipe

In December I prepared 3 Oreo Ice cream Cake s for Holiday parties and one I kept it for us. Its such an amazing chilled cake with the layers of brownie topped with Hot Chocolate Syrup and then Oreo Ice Cream, frosted with Oreo Whipped Cream and finally decorated with chocolate ganache.
This Ice Cream doesn’t need a special spring foam pan, your regular Sieve / Jalladai in Tamil gives perfect cake. Even in that busy schedule I managed to record the entire cake making and shared the recipe with video tutorial

HERE. Also you can bake the Brownie Base in Pressure Cooker and for Egg-less Version you can try this Recipe. Hope I have given answers for your queries. Do feel free to comment or mail for any doubts.

Also this is my 600th post, thinking my growth in the past 7 years. There are lot of changes in photography, presentation etc. Since I am a calm person trying to give more content in each post (you can check my very first post here). Personally lot of ups and downs but the passion in blogging continues and thanks for my family members to make it happen, hope it survives till the end of my life. Thank you readers, followers, fans, visitors , friends and relatives for being here. A small token of appreciation in the form of like and share motivates me in many ways.

• Increase the height of the sieve as shown for that grease the inner sieve with butter and then stick the parchment paper.
• Place cake rim or the sieve rim without plate or spring foam pan over cake board (make sure the cake board is little wider than the cake for easy working.
• Place the first layer of brownie base.
• Add half of the Chocolate Syrup / Sauce, gently brush the sides and not to overflow.
• Now add half of the Oreo Ice Cream and level it.
• Place the second layer of cake, top it with remaining chocolate sauce followed by remaining Oreo Ice Cream.
• Place it in the freezer for 6 hours or until set.
• Mean while you can make the Whipped Cream for Icing the cake.
• Take the frozen cake, remove the pan and parchment paper.
• Do frost the cake neatly if desired.
• Chill the frosted cake for a while and smooth it with hot water if necessary.
• Melt the chocolates / wafers in microwave or double boiler to smooth consistency with necessary heavy cream.
• Once it cools to room temperature (still in pouring consistency) pour it over Iced cake.

Notes

1. You can bake the brownie base in one pan and cut it later in to two layers later make sure the cake is chilled before doing it.
2. The Chocolate Sauce or Syrup is nothing but Hot Fudge Sauce or Chocolate Hot Fudge or Sundae Syrup available in stores which are used to top brownies and ice cream. Also you can make it at home by melting chocolate chips with heavy cream.
3. You can still use your cake pan make sure to increase the height using parchment paper and here wrap the pan with clear wrap before adding your parchment paper and cake board. This clear wrap helps to lift your cake out of the pan once its assembled and frozen. Do check over hanged paper in Neapolitan ice cream cake for reference.
4. If the melted chocolate ganache thickens then warm in microwave or double boiler to attain perfect dripping consistency.
