2 Replies

1 package of our lemon chiffon cake mix
1 1/2 cups raspberry sherbet
1 1/2 cups orange sherbet
1 1/2 cups lime sherbet

Heat oven to 350°. Prepare cake mix as directed on package except – pour half the batter into ungreased jelly roll pan, 15 1/2 x 10 1/2 x 1 inch, spreading batter to corners. Pour remaining batter into ungreased loaf pan, 9x5x3 inches.

Bake jelly roll pan 20 to 25 minutes, loaf pan 45-50 minutes or until top springs back when touched lightly with finger.

Cool jelly roll pan 10 minutes. Loosen cake from edges of pan; invert on towel sprinkled with confectioners’ sugar. Trim off stiff edges if necessary. Roll cake and towel from narrow end; cool towel-wrapped cake on wire rack. Invert loaf pan to cool. (Use loaf cake as desired.)

Unroll cake; remove towel. Beginning at narrow end, spread raspberry sherbet on 1/3 of cake, orange sherbet on the next 1/3 of cake and lime sherbet on remaining cake. Roll up carefully.

Place seam side down on piece of aluminum foil, 18 x 12 inches. Wrap securely in foil; freeze until firm. Remove from freezer 15 minutes before serving. Cut roll into 3/4 inch slices. 12 servings.

Ice-Cream Bombe

4 Replies

2 pints orange sherbet
1 pint pistachio ice cream
1 pint chocolate ice cream

Soften 1 pint of the orange sherbet; spoon into chilled 2 quart metal mold or bowl. Freeze until firm, at least 1 hour. Soften pistachio ice cream; spread over layer of orange sherbet in mold. Freeze until firm.

Repeat with chocolate ice cream and the remaining orange sherbet. Cover mold with waxed paper; freeze until firm.

Just before serving, turn mold onto chilled serving plate. Dip cloth into hot water; wring out and place over top of mold until mold loosens.

Remove mold. If surface of ice cream has melted slightly, return to freezer for about 10 minutes. If you wish, garnish bombe with fruits or whipped cream. 8 to 10 servings.

Mix and match ice-cream flavors and colors to your moods, table decorations, menu or even to the seasons. Try dark chocolate, mocha, and chocolate chip ice cream, strawberry, mint and cherry ice cream, pistachio, dark cherry and coffee ice cream, butter pecan, banana and blueberry ice cream.
