If you are a fan of the Big Boy Hot Fudge Cake , this Peppermint Hot Fudge Cake is a great copycat with a Holiday twist
Holiday recipes are always fun . I have shared several Easy No-Bake Peppermint Cheesecake, Peppermint Candy Cane Dip and Easy Sugar Cookie Bars are just a few.
Yes sure use what ever flavor you prefer , however chocolate or devils food are a great pairing with the peppermint ice cream.
After buying a carton of peppermint ice cream , i dipped it out and put it in a square or rectangle container and smooth it out . Then I put it back in the freezer for a couple hours. It can then be cut it to fit the shape of the cake. Another option is to just put a scoop between the cake layers or put the ice cream on the side.
Homemade is always best. Cool Whip or Redi-whip will also work.
