Do you ever suddenly remember something you ate as a kid and have to have it again? It happens to me often — usually with cereal. But this time, it was ice cream cake…a sweet Strawberry Ice Cream Cake to be specific.

Growing up I had an ice cream cake from TCBY for every single birthday. I am not sure when it stopped, but I miss them immensely. Who wouldn’t love ice cream and cake combined?? We don’t have any TCBY’s around where I live these days and so I decided to make my own ice cream cake.

I used a store bought Sara Lee pound cake, strawberry ice cream, fresh strawberries and chocolate shell topping to finish it off. The cake takes about 10 minutes to toss together and needs about an hour to harden before you serve it.

I almost skipped the chocolate topping on top, but I am so glad I included it. Getting a bite of chocolate, pound cake, strawberry and ice cream all in one cold bite is perfection.

If you aren’t a fan of frozen strawberries (I love them if they are sliced super thin), you can also substitute the strawberries for Strawberry Ice Cream Topping — you can find it in the grocery store next to all the other ice cream toppings.  It adds plenty of strawberry flavor and you won’t have any frozen berry texture.

Also, if you are up to the extra work, you can absolutely make your own Dark Chocolate Magic Shell topping. All you need is chocolate and coconut oil to make your own!

I hope you enjoy this frozen dessert as much as my family and I did! We had spent an entire afternoon outside in the Florida heat and this was the perfect dessert to enjoy together after dinner!!
