ice cream bread

shortbreadlover — Mon, 01 Jul 2019 17:43:37 GMT

1 pint of ice cream (any flavor) softened

1 1/2 c self-rising flour

heat oven to 350. mix flour and ice cream together and pur intoa an 8x 4 loaf pan. bake at 350 for 40 to 45 min or until toothpickcomes out clean. cool and frost as desired the enjoy.

with this cake it is best to use a very good brand of icecream. i like any fruit ice cream but butter pecan is good too. you can also make cupcakes just adjust the baking time as needed.

Having a hard time picturing this, but I am curious. So, it's like a cake?

it is so easy and you can vary the flavor as desired. i like strawberry and chocolate. but as i stated, the better brands of ice cream make the best ckae.

So, butter and ice cream and bread? I may have to try this, just so I can taste it for myself! Bread and icecream do not make a match, in my mind.

@Peaches McPhee - I'm with you—my brain just isn't wrapping around the concept of what is essentially cream plus flour turning into something tasty. Interesting...

try it and i am sure thatyou will like it. the ice cream when mixed with flour makes a very sweet cake like bread depending on the flavor that you use.

I once made a cake using ice cream - in place of I can't even remember - and it was a waste of good ingredients. It was awful and went right into the garbage after a slice.

I have made this recipe quite a few times over the years. The key is to use a really good premium ice cream -that makes or breaks this recipe. I've made it with peach, strawberry, mint chocolate chip, cherry vanilla, banana and it's always turned out well. Also makes great muffins. Don't knock it!

I was intrigued by this combination of ingredients, so I tried the recipe yesterday. The result was a loaf that truly had the texture of bread (not quick bread, which was kind of what I expected) rather than a cake but didn't have much flavor at all. I used Haagen Dazs Cherry Vanilla, which is a good quality ice cream, but the bread wasn't very sweet, didn't taste like vanilla, and only had a pop of taste when I got a cherry in a bite. I can definitely see why one might spread butter on this due to the texture and need for a little more creaminess and flavor. Overall, I'd say the approach is interesting, but I doubt I'd make this again. Thanks for sharing the idea, @shortbreadlover.

Yes, the same thing happened with me, I think it may have been the recipe I used , it didn't call for self rising flour. I would be up for trying it again.
