👩‍🍳 Instructions:
1 Bake the Cake
Preheat your oven according to the instructions on your chocolate cake mix. Prepare the batter and bake as directed. Let the cake cool completely.
2 Prepare the Strawberries
While the cake cools, combine sliced strawberries with powdered sugar. Let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes to release the natural juices and enhance the sweetness.
3 Build the Ice Cream Layers
Once the cake is cool, slice it horizontally into two even layers. Place one layer into the bottom of a springform pan. Spread softened vanilla ice cream over the cake, followed by a layer of softened chocolate ice cream. Freeze for 1 hour to set the layers.
4 Add Fruit and Chocolate
After freezing, drizzle the melted chocolate chips over the ice cream layers. Spoon the strawberry mixture on top for a burst of fruity flavor.
5 Finish the Cake
Place the second cake layer on top and press down gently. Freeze the entire cake for 2 to 3 hours, or until completely firm.
6 Decorate and Serve
Just before serving, drizzle with hot fudge sauce and top with fluffy whipped cream and a few extra fresh strawberries for garnish.
