Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Combine chocolate cake mix, water, eggs, and oil in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Pour batter into the prepared baking dish.

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 26 to 30 minutes. Allow to cool completely on a wired rack.

Meanwhile, remove the carton paper from ice cream. Set ice cream block on its long side. Use a piece of string or dental floss to cut ice cream in half lengthwise, then place the 2 pieces side-by-side on a sheet of waxed paper.

5
Remove cooled cake from the baking dish and place over the ice cream slabs. Trim cake and ice cream, so the edges are flush.

6
Place a board or serving platter over cake. Holding onto the waxed paper and board, flip ice cream cake over. Remove the waxed paper and smooth the seam between the ice cream slabs.

Cover top with waxed paper and freeze until very firm. Decorate as desired.

Italian Tuna Spread
This Italian tuna spread recipe makes a great addition to an antipasti spread. Serve it with crostini, Melba toast, or crackers at room temperature. Store it, covered, in the refrigerator. To reuse, bring it back to room temperature; do not microwave to reheat; it will turn to goop. This also makes the best tuna fish sandwich you will ever have. Use iceberg lettuce, toasted bread, and a thin slice of tomato. Yum!
Butter Icing for Sugar Cookies
Here's a terrific recipe for buttercream icing for cookies with no raw egg whites. For any recipes that require egg whites, you can substitute dried, powdered egg whites, usually found at cake-decorating supply stores. Then you can still lick the bowl!
Basic Gingerbread Cookies
This recipe for basic gingerbread cookies is very easy and quick because the dough doesn't need to sit in the refrigerator. I'm horrible at rolling out dough and cutting out shapes. The oil in this recipe makes the dough less sticky. Decorate with frosting and candies, if desired.
