How to Make Mud Slide Ice Cream Dream

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 oz) chocolate cake mix, 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened, and 3 large eggs. Mix until well combined.
  3. Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.
  4. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. The top will appear dry and cracked.
  5. Let the cake cool completely in the pan for about 1 hour.
  6. Once cooled, brush the cake evenly with 2 tablespoons of coffee liqueur or strong brewed coffee.
  7. Let your favorite vanilla ice cream soften slightly at room temperature for about 15 minutes.
  8. Spread the softened ice cream evenly over the cooled cake.
  9. Freeze for at least 3 hours, or until the ice cream is firm.
  10. In a medium bowl, beat 1 cup of chocolate frosting with 2 tablespoons of coffee liqueur or strong brewed coffee until smooth and creamy.
  11. Spread the coffee frosting evenly over the frozen ice cream layer.
  12. Cover and return to the freezer for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the frosting to set.
