I got way too ambitious this week after seeing Food Network’s American Flag Ice Cream Cake… and now I’m the proud owner of two massive cakes. 😅 This one? It’s the original. Not perfect, but bold—and honestly, kind of a vibe. (I'll share my remake with strawberry ice cream instead of sorbet in my stories) Here’s the scoop so you don’t make my mistakes: ⏳ Each layer takes 30 minutes to freeze—so prep while multitasking. 💡 Start with vanilla ice cream, not sorbet. Sorbet melts faster than your willpower. 📄 Line your pan with parchment—trace, cut, press. Game-changer. I hated this one so much at first, I made a second with strawberry… but I still like how punchy this red is. I’m breaking down both versions in stories—recipe, my step-by-step, and all the things I did (or wish I did) so you can crush it the first time. Catch it all there while I casually eat ice cream cake for breakfast. 🇺🇸🍦 @vitalfarms vitalfarmsvff @foodnetwork foodnetwork americanflagcake
