Instructions
-
Prepare the Pan: Begin by greasing a springform baking pan with butter and dusting it with flour. Line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal. A removable base is ideal for an ice-cream cake to facilitate serving after freezing.
-
-
Sift Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, sift together the baking powder, flour, and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
-
Preheat Oven: Set your oven to preheat at 375°F (190°C).
-
Whisk Eggs and Sugar: In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar until the mixture becomes light yellow and fluffy, indicating it’s well aerated.
-
Incorporate Vanilla and Oil: Add the vanilla extract and sunflower oil to the egg mixture, beating at medium speed for about 3 minutes until well combined.
-
Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients: Gradually add the sifted flour mixture, alternating with warm milk. Whisk on low speed until just combined. Finally, incorporate the strawberry essence.
-
Bake the Cake: Pour the cake batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25 to 28 minutes, or until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean.
-
Cool and Layer: Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool completely. After cooling, cut off the top to level it, then divide the cake into two equal layers.
-
Assemble the Cake: Work quickly to assemble the ice-cream cake, ensuring the ice cream doesn’t melt into the layers. If in a warm climate, freeze the cake after adding each layer of ice cream.
-
Decorate: Frost the top of the cake lightly, if desired, and sprinkle with decorative sugar and chocolate chips for an appealing finish.
-
Serve: When ready to serve, cut the cake using a knife dipped in warm water to ensure clean slices. Enjoy your delightful Homemade Ice-Cream Cake immediately!
