Cake Mix Ice-Cream

There are very few things better than cake, but un-baked cake mix is definitely one of them. I decided a little while ago that I wanted to make a cake-flavoured ice cream, and on doing a Google search for such, found that rather a few people have had a much better idea: cake mix ice-cream!


I looked at a few recipes online, but in the end decided to just improvise with some custard. After all, cake and custard just GO, am I right?

Ingredients:
284ml double cream
440g fresh custard
1 packet of cake mix
2 tbsp sprinkles

Prep time: [time] 
Makes approximately 1 litre of ice cream

  1. Get your ice-cream machine ready to use. For me, this means leaving it in the freezer for at least 12 hours before use.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whip the cream to stiff peaks. Fold in the custard and the cake mix into the cream until evenly combined, then pop into the freezer for 10 minutes to chill.
  3. Take the mixture out of the freezer, and pour into the ice-cream machine. Leave the machine running for around 20 minutes, until the ice cream is thick and has a "whippy" type consistency. Pop the ice cream into a freezer tub, and mix in the sprinkles.
  4. Pop the ice-cream into the freezer for at least 30 minutes to firm up. Try not to eat it all at once!
