Equipment

  • Kitchen Scale (optional)
  • 9x5-inch loaf pan

Ingredients

  • 10.75 ounces frozen pound cake 304 grams (1 package)
  • 25 ounces Chocolate Ice Cream 709 grams, softened (about ⅘ quart / 1½ pints)
  • ¼ cup caramel sauce 80 grams
  • 1 cup salted peanuts 142 grams, divided
  • 25 ounces Vanilla Ice Cream 709 grams, softened (about ⅘ quart / 1½ pints)
  • ¼ cup hot fudge 80 grams

Instructions

  • Cut the pound cake lengthwise horizontally into three layers. You won't use the top, so set it aside to top with strawberries and whipped cream for a treat later.
    10.75 ounces frozen pound cake
  • Line a loaf pan with plastic wrap.
  • Start by placing one of the pound cake pieces in the bottom of a loaf pan. Top completely with the chocolate ice cream. Use a spatula to smooth out and spread the slightly softened ice cream.
    25 ounces Chocolate Ice Cream
  • Pour the caramel over the ice cream, leaving a bit of a rim so the caramel doesn't go all the way to the sides.
    ¼ cup caramel sauce
  • Top the caramel with half of the peanuts.
    1 cup salted peanuts
  • Place the remaining piece of pound cake over the caramel and peanuts (it won't reach all the way to the sides of the ice cream).
  • Top the pound cake with the vanilla ice cream, again smoothing out to form a level layer.
    25 ounces Vanilla Ice Cream
  • Top with hot fudge and more peanuts.
    ¼ cup hot fudge
  • Place in the freezer for a minimum of 8 hours before serving.

Notes

  • You can also make this with homemade pound cake (click for recipe).
  • Use your favorite brand of ice cream. I used Blue Bunny Vanilla Bean and Chocolate.
Storage: Store Lazy Girl's Snickers ice cream cake in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 month.
