Ice cream cake

Ice cream cake recipes have been around for centuries. The earliest known recipe dates back to the 16th century, when a Italian chef named Antonio Carpinella created a cake made with ice cream, cream, and eggs. The recipe was later published in a cookbook in 1768.

In the early 1800s, ice cream cake became a popular dessert in America. The first known recipe was published in 1851, and it was made with ladyfingers, sponge cake, and fruit.

In the late 1800s, ice cream cake recipes began to include chocolate. The first known recipe was published in 1897, and it was made with chocolate ice cream, chocolate cake, and chocolate frosting.
