How to Make Kit Kat Ice Cream Cake

  1. Prepare an 8-inch springform pan.
  2. Remove 2 pints chocolate ice cream and 1 pint hazelnut gelato from the freezer and let them stand at room temperature for 15 minutes, or until soft and spreadable but not melting.
  3. Cut 9 Kit Kat bars (approximately 3 1/2-inch long bars) into 4 sections each using a sharp knife.
  4. Arrange the Kit Kat sections around the sides of the springform pan, narrower Kit Kat-inscribed side against the pan.
  5. Coarsely chop the remaining 9 Kit Kat bars.
  6. Divide the chopped Kit Kats into 3 equal piles.
  7. Spoon 1 pint of chocolate ice cream into the springform pan and spread firmly and evenly to cover the bottom.
  8. Sprinkle with 1 pile of chopped Kit Kats.
  9. Layer the remaining ingredients in this order: 1 pint chocolate ice cream, 1 pile of chopped Kit Kats, 1 pint hazelnut gelato, the remaining pile of chopped Kit Kats, and the final 1 pint chocolate ice cream.
  10. If at any time the bottom layer begins to melt, place the cake in the freezer until the ice cream becomes firm.
  11. Cover the pan and freeze for at least 8 hours, or up to 1 month, until very firm.
  12. Just before serving, remove the pan sides.
  13. Garnish as desired.
  14. To make clean cuts, dip a long, sharp knife in hot water between cuts.
