cream to make it a perfect summer treat.
Ingredients:
1 (10 inch) angel food cake
1 qt. butter pecan ice cream, softened
1 c. heavy cream
1/4 c. sugar
1/3 c. toasted pecans, chopped
Directions:
1. Place cake on board or heavy foil. With electric knife, slice
a layer of cake about 1 inch from top; set aside.

outer edge and 1 inch from the middle hole, leaving a substantial
1-inch base on bottom of cake.

cavity in cake; replace top of cake and press down against ice
cream.
4. Wrap cake in foil and freeze until firm but not hard (about 2
hours).

stiff. Frost top and sides of cake with sweetened whipped cream.
