Hi everyone!

Do your kids love ice cream cake for their birthdays, too? I've learned from past experience that they are expensive; even when I used to just get the ones with questionable ingredients from the grocery store, they were still expensive. Instead, try making an easy homemade ice cream cake! (Hint, mine isn't as pretty as this one, but it also doesn't have any dangerous food coloring.) We had some family over for two of our kids’ birthdays, and instead of paying $70 for a big ice cream cake from a local bakery like we’ve done in the past (and who knows for sure about those ingredients), we just made it ourselves! Remember I told you our daughter loves being in the kitchen? Well, she did a lot of it herself and it turned out pretty yummy.
