Norwegian Krokan Ice Cream Cake

Makes: serves 12 to 16

Y ou might think, what´s up with all the ice cream cake recipes in the middle of winter? In Scandinavia, we love serving ice cream cakes for the holiday season. It´s perfect to enjoy after a heavy dinner.

Norwegian Krokan Ice Cream Cake is one of my ideal ice cream cakes to make for the holiday season. It is gooey and dreamy in taste.

The Norwegian word "krokan" means crushed praline that you usually make with almonds. I prefer the version without almonds and make just crushed salted caramel shards.

The ice cream cake starts with a gluten-free almond crust that  is gooey, chewy, and crunchy. 

The cake is then topped with  vanilla ice cream made with egg yolks. The ice cream has a texture of part ice cream and vanilla mousse, and it is then combined with crushed salted caramel shards.

The  crunchiness of the crushed salted caramel shards just melts perfectly into the vanilla ice cream,  and the ice cream cake is finished off with salted peanuts that balance the sweetness of the vanilla ice cream.

This ice cream cake is gooey and divine and perfect for enjoying a small slice on Christmas/New Year's Eve after a heavy dinner.

 

Happy New Year, Everyone
