Jamaican Ice Cream Cake Recipe

INGREDIENTS

• ⅓ cup melted unsalted butter
• 4 eggs
• 1 ½ tablespoons rum
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons molasses
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
• ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
• ¼ teaspoon cinnamon powder
• ⅛ teaspoon ground allspice
• 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
• 1.5 quarts of your favourite ice cream

PROCEDURE

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
   
   
2. Line and grease a baking sheet.
   
   
3. Start working on your cake batter. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until pale and foamy (or for around 2 minutes)
   
   
4. Next, add the sugar, oil, and vanilla and continue to whisk the batter until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
   
   
5. Now it is time to introduce the dry ingredients. Add the flour, some cocoa powder, baking powder and salt.
   
   
6. Use the spatula to properly mix the ingredients into the batter.
   
   
7. Add just like that, your spiced vanilla cake is ready for the oven.
   
   
8. Pour the batter onto the baking sheet and bake for 12 minutes.
   
   
9. While your cake bakes, lay out a clean kitchen towel and sprinkle it with cocoa powder.
   
   
10. Once the cake is done, place it face down onto the towel and remove the liner.
    
    
11. Roll the cake in the towel and wrap it at the ends.
    
    
12. Place in the refrigerator for 1 hour to cool.
    
    
13. Take the cake from the fridge and unroll it.
    
    
14. Place your ice cream in scoops onto your cake, then use your spatula to evenly flatten the scoops on the cake.
    
    
15. Tightly roll the cake back up without the towel, and scrape the excess ice cream from the sides.
    
    
16. Freeze the cake for at least 3 hours, preferably overnight.
    
    
17. Slice the roll into 2-3 inch slices and serve.
