Sometimes the best things in life are the simplest. That said, my Spring Ice Cream Sandwich Cake is a simple and delicious way to celebrate Spring!
Today I am sharing my Spring Ice Cream Sandwich Cake. This cake is easy to prepare, and best of all, it’s enjoyed by people of all ages!!
I absolutely love the fun Spring colors! After the long, and I do mean long Winter we’ve had it’s so nice to finally see something colorful.
We had our first 70 degree day a few days ago! Can you believe it’s the first 70 degree day we’ve had in 7 months? That’s right, 7 months people!
This Spring Ice Cream Sandwich Cake is a great way to end any meal!
Don’t you just love the beautiful color of the mini Robin Eggs on top? So much fun for Spring. 🙂
You don’t have to use the malt mixture in between each layer, but it really adds a nice touch. Most people love the flavor of malt, and this layer is a wonderful addition.
You can frost the sides completely if you so desire. I prefer to just use a generous amount of my marvelous malt layer in between the cake layers and just sort of let it drop down on its own.
I love the more FUN and casual look, especially when it comes to dessert!
Simple, yummy, and delicious. Who could ask for more?
Do yourself a favor and make this tonight! You will be glad you did!!

ingredients:
9 Regular Ice Cream Sandwiches (there are also instructions below for using 12 sandwiches)
