You don't need a specialty shop for a totally awesome ice cream cake. Serve our easy strawberry-choco-fudge-flavored ice cream treat and watch your guests scramble for forks.
The inspiration from this cake came from Tartine's pumpkin tea cake. I wanted to make a lighter, cake-ier cake, closer to a dessert you'd eat at a dinner party than to a quickbread you'd eat for breakfast. The frosting recipe is based on my idol Dorie Greenspan's Tangy Cream Cheese Frosting.
