Vanilla ice cream cake recipe with step by step photos and instructions have been provided in the ‘Instructions’ section of the recipe. But before jumping into the recipe, let me share few more things about the recipe.

All-purpose flour: Yes, it is an all-purpose flour cake recipe. Sometimes, it is difficult to get cake flour in kitchen pantry. So, I have come up with this light and fluffy cake recipe using all-purpose flour.

Vanilla ice cream: It provides richness, flavour and taste to the cake recipe. This vanilla ice cream has replaced butter and condensed milk from a normal, eggless cake recipe.

Caster sugar: It gives sweetness to the cake.

Baking powder: It helps the cake to rise and make it lighter.

Vanilla extract: This is optional but gives extra flavouring to the cake.

Choco chips: The addition of semi-sweet Choco chips is completely optional, but it enhances the taste of the cake.

To prepare the vanilla ice cream cake recipe, first keep the ice cream out of the fridge and allow it to melt completely. Then measure all the other ingredients and keep them aside. Take all-purpose flour, baking powder and sieve them together.

Grease an 8 inches cake tin with butter and line the bottom with wax paper. Make the cake tin ready before preparing the batter so that you can immediately pour the batter without investing time.

Preheat the oven for 10 minutes at 160°C Fan/180°C Electric/Gas 4.

Take a large bowl and add 2 cups of melted vanilla ice cream into it. I have used my homemade vanilla ice cream recipe without egg for the recipe. If you like, you can check the recipe.

Then add 1/3 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract into the bowl and whisk it for 2-3 minutes with a whisker. Add the sieved flour mixture into the batter in 3 portions and mix it nicely with a spatula using cut and fold method. Make a smooth, airy and lumps free batter with the ingredients. Add ½ cup semi sweet Choco chips into the batter and mix it well.

Pour the cake batter into the prepared cake tin and sprinkle some extra Choco chips over the top. Transfer the cake tin into the middle of the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes to bake the vanilla ice cream cake. For me, it took exactly 35 minutes. But sometimes the duration may vary due to difference in heat of oven.

Check the cake with the help of toothpick or skewer. If it is not done, then bake it for another couple of minutes and check again. Once it is done, transfer the cake tin on wired racks for 15-20 minutes to cool down. Then you can insert knife through the edges of the cake to demould it.
