3 Ingredient Cake

Are you looking for an easy, quick cake recipe???
I have one for you. We made it this weekend and it was delish!
Mama got the idea from Pinterest…of course, but I have to share it with y’all.
Here’s all you need:
  • A box cake mix {any flavor}
  • 1 pint of ice cream {any flavor}
  • 3 eggs
That’s it…3 ingredients!

Like I said, you can choose any flavor cake mix and ice cream. Mama and I decided on Heath bar ice cream and caramel cake mix.
{We only used half of this carton of ice cream because you only need a pint.}
You let the ice cream melt and then mix all three ingredients. Put in a greased and floured bunt pan and bake at 350 degrees.
Bake for 30-45 minutes.
Let cool a few minutes and flip out of pan.
Create a glaze/frosting of your choice and pour over cake.

Here's how I made the caramel frosting/glaze:

Ingredients

  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup toasted, chopped pecans
Directions
  1. In a shallow 6-inch saucepan, thoroughly mix brown sugar and flour. Stir in butter and milk, and cook over medium-high heat until mixture comes to a rolling boil. Boil exactly 1-1/2 minutes.
  2. Remove from heat. Allow to cool 5 minutes. Mix in vanilla and continue beating until frosting is the consistency of thick honey, no more than 1 to 2 minutes.
  3. Immediately pour caramel frosting onto cooled cake before frosting begins to set. 
 And there you have it…the easiest cake ever.
