Ingredients
 round cake (1) |
 ice cream (0.5 gallon) |
 egg whites (6) |
 cream of tartar (0.25 tsps) |
 powdered sugar (60 g) |
Steps
- 1 Grease a 7-inch bowl (large enough to hold 1/2 gallon ice cream, but not wider than your cake round!) with flavorless oil (see note above) or unsalted butter.
- 2 Let ice cream soften until it is workable. Pack tightly in the bowl. Return bowl to freezer until it hardens.
- 3 When ready to assemble, beat egg whites until foamy.
- 4 Add tartar and whip until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in powdered sugar, a little bit at a time.
- 5 Place frozen layer cake on a plate slightly larger than the cake. Unmold the ice cream by centering it on the cake. If the ice cream does not release from the bowl, see notes.
- 6 Do not trim the cake. "Frost" cake and ice cream with meringue, covering completely, creating a decorative pattern by forming peaks with a spoon or spatula.
- 7 Bake in preheated at 450 degrees for 6-7 minutes until meringue peaks are golden brown.
- 8 Store in freezer until serving time.
