Ice Cream Tiramisu Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Stir sugar into espresso until dissolved. Stir in liqueur; set aside to cool.
• Using a long serrated knife, cut cake in half horizontally, making 2 layers. Place 1 layer in the bottom of a 9-inch square baking dish. Using a pastry brush, brush with half the espresso syrup. Sift 2 tablespoons espresso powder over top.
• Put 1 quart ice cream into bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on low speed until softened; spread over bottom cake layer. Top with second cake layer; brush with the syrup. Let chill in freezer 20 minutes.
• Sift remaining 2 tablespoons ground espresso over cake. Mix remaining quart ice cream in the bowl of an electric mixer until softened. Spread over cake, swirling decoratively. Freeze until firm. Frozen tiramisu can be wrapped in plastic and stored in the freezer up to 3 days. Before serving, garnish with chocolate curls.

Steps:

• Line a 1kg loaf tin with cling film. Beat the mascarpone, sugar and marsala together then fold in the chocolate and cream.
• Make up the coffee with 600ml boiling water, leave for 5 mins then strain into a bowl and stir in the sugar and brandy.
• Reserve 2 biscuits then quickly dip the remainder as you use them into the coffee mixture and line them along the base and up the long sides of the tin (they will stand above the rim).
• Spoon in half the creamy mixture. Dip the last biscuits into the coffee and place on top end to end. Spoon the remaining creamy mixture on top, then fold over the sponge fingers above the rim and press lightly into the filling. Cover and freeze. To serve, turn out onto a plate, strip off the cling film and dust generously with cocoa. Spoon the cream down the centre and decorate with the chocolate.

Steps:

• Line a loaf pan that the pound cake fits in with overhanging plastic wrap.
• Cut the pound cake horizontally into 4 slices. Stir the ground espresso together with the grated chocolate in a small bowl.
• Place the first slice of cake in the prepared loaf pan. Drizzle the cake with 2 1/2 tablespoons liqueur. Spread half of the coffee ice cream over the cake and top with 2 tablespoons of the chocolate and espresso mixture.
• Repeat the process above, this time using the chocolate ice cream. Then again, using the remaining coffee ice cream. Repeat one final time, using the vanilla ice cream and garnishing the top with the remaining chocolate and espresso mixture.
• Loosely cover the cake with the overhanging wrap. Place the cake in the freezer until hardened, about 4 hours.
• Remove from the freezer and unfold the plastic wrap from the top. Remove the cake form the pan and peel off the remaining plastic wrap. Slice and serve.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar and water. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat and stir in espresso and coffee liqueur. Let cool completely.
• Split the sponge cake in half horizontally to make two layers. Place bottom layer in a serving dish. Brush with 3/4 cup coffee syrup. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons ground espresso evenly over surface of cake. Beat the espresso ice cream with the paddle attachment of an electric mixer until spreadable. Spread over bottom cake layer. Place the top cake layer over the ice cream. Brush with remaining coffee syrup. Place in freezer 30 minutes.
• Beat the coffee ice cream until spreadable. Spread the ice cream over the frozen cake, and swirl to make pretty. Return cake to freezer until firm.

Steps:

• Prepare cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 9-inch square baking pan. Line the pan with parchment paper and butter again. Flour pan and set aside.
• Sift flour and cornstarch together in a small bowl. Combine egg yolks, 1/2 cup sugar, and vanilla in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment; beat on high speed until thick and pale, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.
• Wash and dry the mixer bowl and whisk and return to the stand. Combine egg whites and salt in the bowl; beat on medium speed until whites hold soft peaks, 1 1/2 minutes. Slowly add the remaining 1/4 cup sugar while the mixer is running. Continue beating until stiff and glossy, about 1 minute. Fold the egg white mixture into the egg yolk mixture. Fold in the flour-cornstarch mixture in 3 batches. Transfer batter to the prepared pan and smooth the top with an offset spatula.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a cake tester inserted in the middle comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Invert carefully onto a serving plate or cooling rack. Let cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• While the cake is cooling, prepare syrup: Combine sugar and water in a small saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and stir in espresso and coffee-flavored liqueur. Set aside to cool.
• Prepare ice cream layer: Use a serrated knife to cut cooled cake in half horizontally, making 2 layers. Place one layer in the bottom of a 9-inch square baking pan. Brush the top with 3/4 cup cooled syrup, then sift 2 tablespoons ground espresso over top.
• Place espresso ice cream in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on low speed until ice cream is spreadable. Spread ice cream over cake, then top with second layer of cake. Brush with remaining syrup and place cake in the freezer for 20 minutes.
• Remove cake from the freezer and sift remaining espresso over top.
• Place coffee ice cream in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on low speed until ice cream is spreadable. Spread ice cream over cake, forming large swirls. Return to the freezer and freeze until completely hard, at least 2 hours.
• To serve, garnish with chocolate curls.

Steps:

• Combine 1/4 cup sugar and 2 1/2 tablespoons water in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, then stir in espresso and coffee liqueur; let coffee syrup cool. Line a 10-by-5-inch loaf pan with plastic wrap, leaving a 4-inch overhang on both long sides of the pan.
• Spread 1/2 vanilla ice cream in bottom of prepared pan. Working quickly, dip 15 ladyfingers, one at a time, in coffee syrup and arrange in a single layer, overlapping slightly, over ice cream. (If ice cream is too soft, return to freezer to firm.) Spread coffee ice cream evenly over ladyfingers. Tap pan against counter to release any air bubbles. Repeat dipping process with remaining 15 ladyfingers and coffee syrup, and arrange on top of coffee ice cream. Spread remaining vanilla ice cream evenly over ladyfingers. Fold over plastic wrap to cover cake. Freeze until firm, at least 5 hours or overnight.
• To unmold, let cake stand at room temperature for a few minutes. Unwrap plastic from top and invert cake onto a platter; press a warm damp towel on sides and bottom of loaf pan to release cake, if needed. Remove plastic, then return cake to freezer.
• Combine egg whites and remaining 1 1/2 cups sugar in a heatproof standing mixer bowl. Set over (not in) a pan of simmering water, whisking until sugar dissolves and mixture is warm to touch, 3 to 3 1/2 minutes.
• Attach bowl to standing mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whisk on low speed, gradually increasing speed to high, until stiff, glossy peaks form, about 10 minutes. Add vanilla and cornstarch, and mix meringue until combined.
• Remove cake from freezer. Using an offset spatula, spread with meringue, swooping decoratively into peaks, as desired. Hold a small handheld kitchen torch at a 90-degree angle 3 to 4 inches from surface of meringue. Move flame back and forth until meringue is browned and caramelized is spots. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• On a baking sheet toast the pound cake slices in one layer in the middle of a preheated 350 °F. oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until they are colored lightly and dry. In a small bowl stir together the rum and the Kahlúa, brush the slices on both sides with the mixture, and let them cool on a rack.
• Make the mascarpone ice cream:
• In a bowl with an electric mixer beat the whole eggs and the sugar until the mixture is thick and very pale and beat in the vanilla, a pinch of salt, and the mascarpone until the mixture is combined well. In a bowl beat the egg white until it holds soft peaks and beat it into the mascarpone mixture. Chill the mixture until it is cold and freeze it in an ice-cream freezer according to the manufacturer's instructions.
• Make the espresso ice cream:
• In a bowl with an electric mixer beat the eggs and the sugar until the mixture is thick and very pale and beat in the vanilla, the milk, the cream, and the espresso mixture, cooled. Chill the mixture until it is cold and freeze it in an ice-cream freezer according to the manufacturer's instructions.
• Line a loaf pan 9 by 5 by 3 inches, with plastic wrap, letting the plastic wrap hang over the edges by several inches, Arrange one row of cake slices, overlapping them slightly, down the middle of the pan, pack in half the mascarpone ice cream, smoothing it, and sprinkle the top with 3 tablespoons of the chocolate. Arrange one layer of the cake slices, overlapping them slightly, to cover the chocolate completely, pack in the espresso ice cream, smoothing it, and sprinkling the top with 3 tablespoons of the remaining chocolate. Arrange another layer of cake slices in the same manner, pack in the remaining mascarpone ice cream, smoothing it, and arrange any remaining cake slices on top, packing the cake in firmly. Fold the plastic wrap over the top and freeze the cake overnight. Invert the cake onto a platter, discarding the plastic wrap, and sprinkle any remaining chocolate decoratively over the top.

Steps:

• Line a 20cm square baking tin with baking paper or clingfilm. Combine the coffee, kahlua and marsala in a bowl.
• Dip half the biscuits into the coffee mix and use to line the base of the tin. Layer half the ice-cream on top and then half the grated chocolate.
• Repeat layers and place in the freezer for 4 hours or until frozen.
