A cousin to ice cream novelties, these easy-to-prepare treats taste like a crunchy orange and vanilla frozen treat. Tangy, sweet orange sherbet and creamy vanilla ice cream are layered between prepared white snack cakes and crushed sugar cones, for a refreshing take on ice cream dessert with a delightfully crunchy twist.
From our A Piece of Cake cookbook, this recipe is a perfect treat to have on hand on a summer day. It’s a cinch to put together with just a few hands-off periods in the freezer.
Keep the ingredients on hand to whip up this recipe any time. Enlist the kiddos to help to crush the ice cream cones and spread the softened sherbet and ice cream, and dessert will be ready when you are!
Cut each snack cake horizontally in half; arrange halves, frosting side-down, in bottom of 9-inch square pan in 4 rows by 4 rows. Spread half the orange sherbet evenly over cakes. Cover and freeze 30 minutes or until sherbet is firm.
If you like, use a prepared pound cake from the bakery (about 10.75 oz) instead of the white fancy cakes. Cut the cake into 1-inch pieces and arrange in single layer in pan.
Try with other flavors, such as raspberry sherbet with chocolate chip ice cream or lime sherbet and coconut ice cream.
