Store bought ice cream cakes are filled with fat but you can make your own at home for half the fat and a lot less calories! AND you can personalize it with whatever cake, icing, and ice cream flavor you want. I went a step further for a special someone’s birthday and tailored it to our favorite video game Mass Effect!
INGREDIENTS
- Two 9 inch cake pans
- 1 Box of Cake Mix (Dry) (Whichever you prefer, will change depending on what kind of cake you choose to make
- 1 Can of Diet Coke (for darker cake mixes) and 1 Can of Diet Sprite (for light cake mixes)
- 3/4 Edy’s Slow Churned Carton of Ice Cream (Flavor of your choice)
- 1 container of whipped frosting
- 1 container of a different frosting (firmer) for frosting
- Decorative frosting (optional)
DIRECTIONS
1) Preheat oven. Pour dry cake mix into large mixing bowl. Add can of Diet Coke/Sprite, depending on what type of cake you’re making, and whisk for a few minutes until thick.
2) Spray two 9 inch cake pans with cooking spray and pour the cake mix evenly between the two pans and bake according to directions on box. BAKE YOUR CAKE AT LEAST 4-5 HOURS BEFORE SERVING.
3) Cool cake completely on cooling racks. After removing cake put one of the cake pans in the freezer for 30 minutes. While doing this set out the ice cream to thaw for 30 minutes.
4) Take cake pan out of the freezer and line the inside with plastic wrap, pressing down lightly in order for it to take the shape of the pan. Evenly spread about a 2-3 inch layer of ice cream in the pan and fold the layers of plastic wrap over the ice cream. Top the cake pan with a layer of tin foil and freeze for a few hours.
5) Place one cake layer on a large plate or other serving platter. After ice cream is set take out of freezer and take off the tin foil top and uncover the plastic wrap from the top, invert it, and place it on top of the bottom cake layer. Now you can peel away the rest of the plastic wrap and place the top cake layer on the ice cream layer. Trim with a knife to make cake even on the sides.
6) Place cake back in freezer for about 30 minutes then take out to apply icing. You may want to do this step a few times because of the difficulty the first layer of icing may provide due to the ice cream layer. Between layers of icing put cake back in freezer for a few minutes at a time.
7) Decorate and enjoy!

“I can’t afford a personal trainer.” “It’s hard to stay motivated.” “I don’t know how many calories to consume?” I don’t know how many calories I burn when I exercise.” EXCUSES EXCUSES!
Noom has an easy-to-use, color-coded food logging system that helps you learn what’s healthy and track meals quickly. Noom gives you the option to remind you to log your meals or not. I leave this on so I know how I’m doing throughout the day. I’ve used a number of different apps: Lose It!, My Fitness Pal, and Spark People and none have food logging capabilities like Noom. This part of the app gives you the option to scan your item in, quickly type it in, or Dial A Meal (shown in photo above) which you can use if you’re more advanced and know what nutrients your food contains. What makes Noom stand out above all other weight loss apps is the meal analysis feature and how visual it makes your food choices. The meal analysis shows you how much green (whole foods, ex: veggies, fruits, organic whole packaged foods i.e. Kashi), yellow (eggs, lunch meat, low fat milk, cheese), red (candy, ice cream, whole milk, fried food). Your choices really change when you see what the ideal portions are and what you are actually eating. If you don’t have any green in a meal or snack a statement pops up saying something like, “It takes 17 minutes of weight lifting to burn 120 calories.” Another way it’s encouraging you to make healthy choices.
Noom has an exercise tracker with real-time GPS and pedometer to record all your activities, inside or outside or you can log activities after the fact putting in the activity, duration, and intensity. I have a heart rate monitor with a chest strap and I added my exercise manually to see if it was accurate to my actual calorie burn and it was within 10 calories. This makes Noom the most accurate out of all the apps I’ve used in the past. You can set your workout schedule weekly with whatever you want to do and optional reminders. There’s also a widget that shows you your weekly calorie burn which I have found quite motivating. It also has a built in pedometer that’s always activated! My favorite part of the exercise tracking is after you add your workout and calorie burn it automatically puts some of the those calories towards your daily intake.
My favorite part about Noom is the coach which sets unique daily food and exercise tasks to help get to your goal. You’ll get something new every day to keep your program fresh! When you first sign up for Noom it prompts you to answer a bunch of questions to set your overall goals. It not only asks you your weight, gender, how often you workout, and how active you are every day but specific goals you want to set. Some of daily goals it has set for me have included taking photos of my meals for a whole day, find a few small ways to incorporate exercise outside of my regular routine, eat one meal containing more than 50% green, and reading numerous relevant and accredited articles focusing on nutrition, exercise and overall wellness. With every challenge, every meal logged, every workout finished you earn points and move up levels! This app promotes you setting and accomplishing small goals every day and living a healthy and happy life!
If you can’t afford a personal trainer and/or nutritionist GET THIS APP! I am already healthy but have been having some difficulty getting to my final goal. With Noom I have lost a pound in a half in one week (which was the goal it set for me) and I FEEL happier, more energetic and confident and I’m so excited for new goals and accomplishments every day!
GET HEALTHY AND GET NOOM!
