I'm so glad it turned out well for you Beryl! Thanks for your tips!

Hi Jaclyn, made this cake for my granddaughter's 5th birthday and it turned out yummy, though I made a few modifications. You can't get chocolate fudge where I live, and I wasn't about to make it from scratch, so purchased some slightly runny chocolate spread, which worked well. Also, I made the cake in a rectangular (non-springform) tin with a lid, without the aluminum foil. I didn't turn the cake out but left it in the tin till the end and cut it there, so didn't have the "oh" effect when I brought it in. But got it when I placed slices of the cake on plates.

I would recommend an oil based vanilla cake of some sort so it doesn't freeze as dense as a butter based cake. Maybe something like <a href="https://beyondfrosting.com/moist-vanilla-cake-recipe/" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow ugc">this</a>

Is there a vanilla cake recipe that would work with the ice cream or will any 9 inch recipe work?

Hi Patricia - I'm so happy to know you've been enjoying this ice cream cake recipe! I don't yet have a vanilla version but if I were to make one I think an oil/sour cream based vanilla cake may be best for softness to slice.

Finally, I found an ice cream cake that the cake stays soft enough to cut. I have made for cakes so far. Everyone has loved them. Thanks so much Jaclyn.
I’ve made chocolate chip, strawberry, peanut butter/chocolate, and coffee.

That has been my favorite! I was so disappointed last time I went and they told me they no longer carry it.
King Arthur carries one that looks similar <a href="https://shop.kingarthurbaking.com//items/Kings-Cupboard-Organic-Hot-Fudge-Sauce?gclid=CjwKCAjwvsqZBhAlEiwAqAHElXS5-C0kFWlQvhFDLK-BJUdjkt42bHgxZRzxwL0QOz_vM8e7Z9azbxoCicsQAvD_BwE" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow ugc">here</a>. It’s pricey though I think something like Mrs Richardsons would work.

Since Trader Joe’s hot fudge sauce is no longer available, what other brand would you recommend?

Pamela - I'm glad the melted chocolate worked as well, thanks for the input on that! I'm happy to hear your daughter loved it!
