How To Make homemade ice cream cake

• 
  1

  Preheat oven to 350'. Cut out wax paper to line bottom of 2 greased 9" cake pans. This makes it easier to remove from the pans and easier clean up. Put in bottom of pans and spray pans again.

  Mix together first three ingredients and 1 tsp of salt. Set aside.
• 
  3

  Mix together 1 1/3 cup of milk and vegetable oil

  Combine flour mixture and milk mixture. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well between each. Mix in 1/2 cup of butter and 1 1/2 tbsp of vanilla extract. Mix for two more minutes. Pour in pans and bake for 25-30 minute or until cake tester or toothpick come out clean.

  After cakes have completely cooled, place for layer on cake platter. Cover with ice cream (you can let it soften a bit to make it easier to work with or cut block ice cream in sections and lay on top). The second suggestion is a little tougher to work with, but you have a longer time to work with the ice cream before it gets too soft.
