One last lick of summer before we roll head first into Pumpkin Everything Season!
This Ice Cream Sandwich Cake recipe is what I call a “half and half”
Half homemade and half store bought!
Don’t judge me!
I just can’t bring myself to make homemade ice cream anymore!
There are so many awesome dairy free alternatives out there and each one is better than the next!
Lately I have found myself hopelessly addicted to SoDelicious Salted Caramel Cluster!

So while I am buying my ice cream to show you how to make this Ice Cream Sandwich Cake
You and Martha Stewart can certainly make your own ice cream recipe and then meet me back here!
The winning touch to this recipe happens to be my Ice Cream Sandwich Cake Recipe anyway
So as long as you make this part I don’t really care what you do about your ice cream part!
Authentic Ice Cream Sandwich Cake is the real deal
You know, that thin cake that gets stuck all over your fingers while you try to lick all the melt-y ice cream from running down your hands
It doesn’t get frozen so you can actually bite into this one like a real deal soft ice cream sandwich!
However, rather than baking my ice cream sandwich cake into sheet pans this time
I decided to go with round cake pans instead
For a giant “chip-wich” sort of look
Except with giant soft crumbs of cake that I had in my freezer instead of those hard, frozen chocolate chips on the side!
It’s more of an ice cream sandwich that can actually double as an ice cream cake but with way less fuss!
Just add some candles and you have yourself a party!
Or do what I did, and eat it in private for a romantic party of one!
So go ahead and grab your favorite ice cream
Or make a recipe of homemade you over-achiever you!
