Equipment

  • Elsa and Anna dolls
  • Olaf doll

Ingredients

Brownie Layer

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2/3 cup flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup neutral oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Ice Cream Layer

  • 1 cup milk
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Whipped Cream Layer

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tbsp powdered sugar

Instructions

Prepare the brownie layer:

  • Preheat the oven to 350. Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, salt and whisk to blend. Add the oil, eggs, and vanilla. Stir gently to combine. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared baking pan.
  • Bake until a tester comes out with few crumbs attached, about 25 to 30 minutes. Allow to cool completely.

Prepare the ice cream layer:

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the milk and sugar until the sugar dissolves. Stir in the cream and vanilla.
  • Freeze in the ice cream machine according to the directions provided by the manufacturer of your particular machine.
  • Once the ice cream has thickened, pour it over the brownie layer in the pan. You can also use store bought ice cream, if you prefer. Just soften it until spreadable, spread it over the brownie layer, and continue with the recipe.
  • Place the cake pan in the freezer until firm. Once firm, remove the sides of the springform pan.

Make the whipped cream snow:

  • In a large mixing bowl combine the whipping cream and sweetener. Whip the cream on high speed until medium peaks form.
  • Frost the cake with the whipped cream and freeze until ready to serve, up to 3 days.
  • Allow the cake to soften just a bit before slicing and serving.
