Cream Cheese Stabilized Chocolate Whipped Cream
     I volunteered to make the cake for my grandson's birthday.  Then, he requested an ice cream cake!  Not just any old ice cream cake, but a Mint Chocolate Chip Oreo Ice Cream Cake.  Sounds delicious, right?  But, how to frost it?  
     I decided that a whipped cream frosting would be best.  I'd made stabilized whipped cream before using a little bit of gelatin and it had turned out just great!  But, then he said that he wanted chocolate frosting, plus I knew that I wanted everything to freeze well and keep its shape when it was transported to the party. 
      All I can say is "Thank you Duff Goldman!"  because I was watching a cooking show that he was a judge on and I heard him tell a contestant that a Cream Cheese Stabilized Whipped Cream Frosting would have been the best frosting choice for their cake!  I never had even heard of that, but I knew it would be the right choice for this cake!

Someone remembered to take a picture!
     Not the best decorating job, but it tasted delicious.  
    There is a thick layer of the frosting, which offsets the sweetness of the mint chocolate perfectly! 
     My Grandson loved it, and that made me so happy! 

     In case you are wondering how I made the cake, here are the layers:
  • First, I crushed Double Stuffed Oreos in the food processor and used them at the bottom of the pan as a base crust.  (About 2 rows of cookies)
  • Next, I cut the cardboard carton off of a box of Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream and sliced it in evenly thick slices and laid them over the Oreos. 
  • After that came 1 dozen Mint Chocolate Ice Cream Sandwiches and arranged them over the ice cream, cutting some to make everything fit. 
  • Then, I used Hershey chocolate syrup to swirl a layer over the ice cream sandwiches.
  • I used about 1/2 a carton more of the Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream and put it in the food processor with the rest of the Oreos and mixed them all together.  Then I spread that mixture over the top.
  • The cake went into the freezer covered with plastic wrap to freeze before I frosted it.
  • When frozen,  spread on the whipped cream frosting and decorate as desired.  I then used the same size foil pan to cover the top of the cake, taping it in place to freeze again and then transport it to the party!
  • OH!  I also found Thin Mint Oreos to use on top of the cake, sticking with the Mint Chocolate/Oreo theme! 
     The tanginess of the cream cheese and the relatively small amount of sugar used in the frosting, (compared to buttercream) made it one of the more popular layers on the cake!  But, there are plenty of other ways to use this frosting:
  • Perfect to swirl on cupcakes!
  • Delicious on a chocolate or other flavored pie!
  • A great fruit dip!

I am sorry about that, as I love this recipe.
