Chocolate Caramel Ice Cream Cake\r
\r
Over the last couple of weeks weve been very busy moving to a different house so we are late in posting this recipe. We ually did the video before we moved so you wont see until next weeks video our new location. Moving is always a lot of work and the older we get, the harder it seems! We still have Kristy to move at the end of the month, so were not done yet! Its been good, though, and were very happy to be in our new home.\r
\r
This time of year, Im always looking for cooling foods to eat; especially light desserts. Here in Lincoln, Nebraska, It seemed like it went from winter to summer and skipped a lot of the spring. Now were back to cooler temperatures but it wont last long! While I was doing all that packing and getting ready to move, I had to have something cool and light to eat as a snack because it was so hot and humid during the whole time of moving. I came up with this wonderful recipe and was able to enjoy it while moving. We didnt have hardly any food in the house to eat during this time, so it was refreshing to go to the freezer and pull out this delicious dessert; especially after a long day of moving.\r

This ice cream cake has caramel swirled into the ice cream with a chocolate crackle topping. You can certainly use your own caramel recipe if you have a favorite. I used the same one we used for the caramel apple tarts. Its one of my favorites. This is ually pretty easy to make but you will need a food processor and/or a blender.\r
Chocolate Caramel Ice Cream Cake\r
\r
Makes one 7 inch tart pan or springform pan\r
Crust\r
\r
1/2 cup walnuts\r
\r
1/2 cup pecans\r
\r
1 cup dates\r
\r
1t vanilla\r
\r
pinch of sea salt\r
\r
Process the walnuts and pecans until small pieces. Add in dates one at a time until the dough forms into clumps. Add in vanilla and sea salt. Press into your pan and place in the freezer while making the caramel, chocolate, and ice cream.\r
\r
Caramel:\r
\r
1/4 cup coconut oil\r
\r
half of 1/3 cup almond butter\r
\r
1/4 cup date syrup*\r
\r
1t vanilla\r
\r
1t lucuma (opt)\r
\r
pinch sea salt\r
\r
If your coconut oil is already in liquid form, you can blend all the ingredients in a blender. Otherwise, melt coconut oil and almond butter in double boiler. Add rest of ingredients and stir until well mixed. Set aside.\r
Chocolate Topping\r
\r
1/8 cup coconut oil\r
\r
1/8 cup cacao powder\r
\r
1T coconut nectar\r
\r
Melt coconut oil in double boiler. Add rest of ingredients and blend well. Set aside. Do not let it cool too much as it will start to harden.\r
Banana Ice Cream\r
\r
3 frozen bananas\r
\r
2t vanilla\r
\r
cacao nibs if you want a chocolate chip ice cream\r
\r
Blend bananas in food processor until smooth and creamy. Add vanilla and cacao nibs. You can transfer to a blender for a creamier ice cream.\r
Assembly:\r
\r
Pour the ice cream on top of your crust. Swirl in the caramel sauce and top with chocolate. I like to sprinkle pecans on top. Set in freezer for several hours. Store in freezer. You will need to thaw out the ice cream cake for 10-15 minutes before eating it. Enjoy!\r
*Date Syrup\r
\r
1 cup dates (soaked)\r
\r
3/4 cup water\r
\r
1/4t stevial powder\r
\r
Blend all ingredients in a high speed blender. This will make more than you need for this recipe. I use it for many of my desserts as a sweetener.\r
