Ingredients

For the funfetti pound cake:

  • 1 cup butter at room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose unbleached flour
  • ½ cup funfetti sprinkles
  • 1 carton of funfetti/birthday cake/your favorite flavor of ice cream
  • approximately ½ cup hot fudge topping
  • additional funfetti sprinkles for topping

Instructions

To make the pound cake:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Grease and flour 8x4" loaf pan.
  • In a large bowl with an electric mixer, beat together butter and sugar until well combined, about 1-2 minutes.
  • Add eggs, one at a time, beating until each one is combined, scraping down the sides as needed.
  • Add vanilla extract and beat until combined.
  • Add flour and beat until just combined.
  • Fold in sprinkles.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 55-58 minutes, until top is golden and toothpick tester comes out clean.
  • Let cool completely.
  • Once cooled, carefully divide the loaf into thirds horizontally to create the layers of your cake.
  • Next, place plastic wrap inside of the loaf pan to cover the entire pan.
  • Place bottom layer of the pound cake on top of the plastic wrap.
  • Spread a layer of the ice cream over the pound cake. You will want 1 ½ to 2 cups of ice cream. You can determine how big you want your ice cream layers.
  • Repeat with remaining pound cake and ice cream, ending with the top of the pound cake.
  • Spread hot fudge topping over the top of the pound cake and then top with remaining sprinkles.
  • Cover carefully and place in freezer to freeze ice cream.
  • Once frozen, cut into slices and enjoy!
  • This can be made a couple of days in advance, if you need.
