Recipe: Triple Chocolate Ice Cream Cake (make ahead, Rachael Ray recipe)

Desserts - Frozen
TRIPLE CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM CAKE

1 cup heavy (whipping) cream
1 (12 ounce) package semisweet chocolate chips
1 (12 ounce) package marble pound cake, such as Entenmann's brand, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices
1 pint vanilla ice cream, softened
20 chocolate wafers, such as Nabisco brand
1 pint chocolate ice cream, softened
4 chocolate wafers, crushed

Line a nonstick (9x5x3 3/4-inch) loaf pan with 2 overlapping sheets of plastic wrap, allowing a 4-inch overhang on all sides.

In a small saucepan, bring the heavy cream to a boil over medium-high heat.

Put the chocolate chips in a heatproof medium bowl and pour the boiling cream over the chocolate. Let sit until the chocolate is melted, about 2 minutes. Stir the mixture with a fork for about 2 minutes, until the ganache is smooth. Pour half of the ganache (1 cup) evenly into the lined pan and spread to cover the base.

Cover the ganache with a single layer of tightly packed cake slices; be sure the layer is flat and even. Working quickly, spread the vanilla ice cream evenly over the pound cake. Cover the ice cream with a layer made of half of the chocolate wafers.

Spread the remaining ganache evenly over the wafers, then top the ganache with another layer, using all of the remaining wafers, and place the cake in the freezer for about 30 minutes to chill and firm up.

Remove the cake from the freezer and spread the chocolate ice cream over the wafers. Top with another flat, single layer of tightly packed slices of pound cake, trimming 1 or 2 slices to fill in the gaps (there will be a few slices left over). The cake may be slightly higher than the pan.

Cover the cake completely with the plastic overhang and freeze until firm, at least 5 hours or overnight.

TO SERVE:
To loosen the ice cream cake from the pan, open the plastic wrap and invert the pan over a flat serving platter. Remove the plastic wrap. Scatter the crushed chocolate wafers over the ice cream cake, then slice and serve immediately.
