This Nutella Crunch Cake Recipe will be the star of your summer party, with your favorite Blue Bunny Ice Cream!#SunsOutSpoonsOut #CollectiveBias
It’s no secret that I am pretty bad at baking. I find it super intimidating. When I cook dinner, I throw a little bit of this in and a little bit of that tasting along the way, and knowing that I can always make adjustments if needed.
The precision of baking throws me off. How you have to measure everything, and you don’t really know what it’ll taste like until it’s done baking. Too late, then, to fix any errors.
When it comes to desserts, I try and find recipes that play to my strengths – putting together good flavors – and avoid things like baking soda and the oven.
That’s why I love this recipe, Ice Cream Nutella Crunch Cake. It’s perfect for birthdays. I mean, who doesn’t love an ice cream cake? It has Nutella. ‘Nuff said. It has crispy bits of yumminess layered throughout. It requires no baking. And? You can taste every little bit along the way! Winner winner, ice cream cake dessert. Sure wish that rhymed…
To make, you’ll add one jar of Nutella (the big one) to a heavy-bottomed pan. Toss in six or seven cups of Rice Krispy cereal. Over low heat, stir occasionally, until cereal bits are coated.
Pour the mixture out onto a baking sheet lined with wax paper and place in the freezer for 30-45 minutes.
Once cold, chop up your Nutella crunchy bits then stir into your favorite Blue Bunny ice cream flavors.
I picked Vanilla and Chocolate during my last Walmart shopping trip, but next time I might add Butter Pecan. Because I can. Be sure to reserve two cups of the cereal mixture.
Add dollops of each ice cream flavor into a chilled spring form pan. Press down so you don’t get any air holes into your cake. Then, top with the reserved Nutella Crunch. Chill overnight then serve.
Durn good. I mean, it doesn’t really get any better.

Wow! I would never have thought to mix Nutella with Rice Krispy Cereal and then add ice cream… pretty much a little slice of heaven. #client
