Chocolate and Honeycomb Ice-Cream Cake with Hot Fudge Sauce

Ingredients (serves 10)

  • Melted butter, to grease
  • 200g Arnott's Butternut Snap Cookies, coarsely crushed
  • 2L chocolate ice-cream
  • 2L vanilla ice-cream
  • 2 x 50g bars NestlĂ© Violet Crumble, chopped
  • 185ml (3/4 cup) thickened cream
  • 175g dark chocolate, chopped

Method

  1. Grease a 22cm (base measurement) springform pan with melted butter. Line the base and side with non-stick baking paper. Sprinkle the biscuit over the base.
  2. Transfer the chocolate ice-cream to a large bowl. Set aside to soften slightly. Spread ice-cream over the biscuit base. Smooth the surface. Place in the freezer for 2 hours or until firm.
  3. Transfer the vanilla ice-cream to a large bowl. Set aside to soften slightly. Stir in three-quarters of the Violet Crumble until just combined. Spoon over the chocolate ice-cream. Smooth the surface. Place in the freezer for 6 hours or overnight until firm.
  4. Heat the cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until just boiling. Add the chocolate. Set aside for 5 minutes or until the chocolate melts. Stir until smooth. Set aside for 20-30 minutes or until the mixture thickens.
  5. Transfer the cake to a serving platter. Sprinkle with the remaining Violet Crumble and serve with the chocolate sauce.

Notes


  • Cook's tip: To serve the cake, remove the side of the pan. Run a palette knife between the paper and the cake. Slide onto a serving platter.
