  • 1 carton blue ice cream 48 ounces
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon blue gel food coloring
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Blueberries, raspberries and/or sprinkles, for decorating (optional)

Instructions

  • Prepare cake mix in 13 x 9-inch pan per package instructions. Allow to cool to room temperature completely, then cover and freeze at least 1 hour.
  • Allow ice cream to sit at room temperature 20 to 25 minutes or until soft and spreadable. Spread ice cream in even layer over cake. Cover and freeze at least 1 hour.
  • Place cream in bowl of stand mixer fitted with whisk attachment. Whip at medium-high speed until soft peaks form. Reduce speed to low and gradually add powdered sugar until all sugar is incorporated. Increase speed to medium-high and continue whipping until medium peaks form. Add food coloring and vanilla and mix until well combined.
  • Spread whipped cream in even layer over ice cream. Cover and freeze at least 1 hour.
  • After it's fully frozen, allow the cake to sit at room temperature for 5 minutes for easier slicing. Decorate with berries or sprinkles, slice, and serve.
