Baked Alaska

Here is what you'll need!

Baked Alaska
Servings: 12

INGREDIENTS

Ice Cream
1 pint vanilla ice cream, softened
2 pint strawberry ice cream, softened
2 pints chocolate ice cream, softened

Cake (Can Sub Boxed Yellow Cake)
1 cup butter, at room temperature
2 cups sugar
4 eggs, at room temperature
3 cups cake flour, sifted
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Swiss Meringue
4 egg whites, at room temperature
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

PREPARATION
1. Wrap a 10-inch freezer-safe bowl in plastic wrap. Scoop the vanilla ice cream into the bowl, and using a spatula smooth the ice cream to form an even layer. Freeze for 1 hour, or until frozen.
2. Remove the bowl from the freezer, and scoop the strawberry ice cream onto the frozen vanilla layer. Using a spatula, smooth the strawberry ice cream to form an even layer. Freeze for 1 hour, or until frozen. After the strawberry layer is frozen, repeat with chocolate ice cream.
3. Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
4. In a bowl, add the eggs and sugar and whisk until well combined.
5. Add 1 egg and mix until combined. Repeat with remaining eggs, mixing after each egg is added.
6. Alternate adding a little bit of flour and milk, whisking after each addition until combined. Repeat until the flour and milk have been used up. The batter should be smooth and creamy.
7. Add the baking powder, salt, and vanilla extract and whisk until well combined.
8. Pour the batter into a greased and floured 10-inch cake tin and bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour, until the top is golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
9. Let the cake cool completely. Once cool, invert the cake onto a plate and set aside.
10. Bring a pan of water to a simmer over medium heat.
11. Place a heatproof bowl over the simmering water, and add the egg whites, sugar, and cream of tartar. Whisk constantly until the sugar has dissolved and the egg white mixture is warm, about 3 minutes.
12. Remove the bowl from the pan. Using a hand mixer, beat the egg white mixture until stiff, glossy peaks form, about 10 minutes. Add the vanilla extract and mix until just combined.
13. Remove the bowl of ice cream from the freezer and gently invert it onto the cake, creating a dome shape. Remove the plastic wrap from the ice cream.
14. Working quickly, use a spatula to spread a layer of meringue over the entire cake and ice cream dome so that it’s fully coated.
15. Using a kitchen torch, brown the peaks of meringue.
16. Serve immediately. Enjoy!

This was the most fascinating thing I could cook in the sims when I was like, 12. This is so satisfying to watch in real life.

Not the Baked Alaska I was looking for. It looks very very delicious though.

That music though. My mom walked in on me watching this, thinking I was watching a '70s porno.

For everyone who doesn't know, baked alaska is an actual dessert, and yes that is its name. Tasty didn't just make it up.

Baked Alaska was considered a high end dessert about the time of the Titanic. It would typically be served with Cherries Jubilee flambé, which are dark cherries in syrup, doused with alcohol and set on fire. These would be paraded into the banquet hall with the lights dimmed, by a parade of waiters each carrying a tray of the flaming cherries to be poured over the baked Alaska.

Not me being here from Ari's music video😂😂😂

Using a brownie base and throwing the entire thing in the oven for a little AND torching the meringue warms things nicely and gives the meringue a nice even golden brown
