Serve a patriotic frozen dessert ice cream cake for July 4th. This Oreo ice cream cake has an incredible red velvet cookie crust, layers of ice cream, pound cake, caramel, chocolate sauce, whip cream, and sprinkles!
For years, I have made this ice cream cake in a 9 x 11 glass pan, and that is fine and works really well. But don’t you think the “cake shape” and patriotic spirit is adorable and one of the best 4th of July Desserts?
Where Did You Find The Patriotic Sprinkles?
Fancy Sprinkles has the most amazing sprinkles for cake decorating…I am loving this company! (I was not sponsored by them, I just love their products).
Use A Springform Pan for this Ice Cream Cake Recipe!
Ice cream cakes work fine in glass 9 x 11 dishes, but using a springform pan really works!
A springform pan is often used for cheesecakes, and are round cake pans with a bottom that pops out, held by a locking collar forming the sides and keeping liquid from dripping out.
Do I Need To Line The Springform Pan Before Making The Ice Cream Cake?
Nope! In fact, it popped right out of the ring so easily once it was frozen overnight.
Does A Springform pan leak?
The one I bought, has a very sturdy base, and only a tiny bit dripped out. You can easily wipe off any excess drips with a damp paper towel.

July 3, 2019 at 9:30 AMI have a question, albeit a dumb one perhaps. I have never heard of a “cube” of butter before. I’ve heard of sticks of butter, though. What is a cube? Really want to make this, looks and sounds delicious!
Lisa says
July 3, 2019 at 9:36 AMGood Morning Sara! You are correct, it is a stick of butter…I will update the recipe so it’s clear. So glad you are making the ice cream cake, it is a family favorite! Curious, are you making it in a large say 9×13 dish, or the springform pan? It works either way, enjoy it…our family eats it very fast!
