Ice cream cake was always our favorite dessert -- I mean ice cream and cake all in one? What's not to love? Our favorite part of the traditional DQ cakes was always the fudgy, crunchy center. I've been pondering lately how I could recreate a healthier vegan alternative, well it's safe to say that this was a complete success, the fudge center especially impressed us.

Most definitely vegan indulging at its finest. Not only does it taste amazing, it looks amazing too. People will wonder where you got the time to make such a beautiful cake, but I promise you it doesn't take longer than an hour, (the freezing and churning takes the most amount of time).

Notes. Walnut-Crusted Artichoke Hearts. Considering my Italian heritage, I admit that I may be partial to Italian cuisine.

After all, I was raised with the fragrance of fresh basil perfuming the air and the music of thick rich tomato sauce simmering on the stove. When my grandparents came to America from “the old country,” they brought with them an appreciation of fresh ingredients and food prepared from scratch. Bread and pasta were always homemade. Vegetables were grown in the backyard garden.

When I finally traveled to Italy myself, I witnessed firsthand how simply prepared fresh produce remains an important part of Italian cuisine. Take artichokes, for example. When fresh artichokes are unavailable, I use frozen or canned in recipes, often pairing them with walnuts. First, I make a thick batter with finely ground walnuts. This recipe works well with cooked frozen artichoke hearts or canned or marinated artichoke hearts. Walnut-Crusted Artichoke Hearts Ingredients Preparation Artichoke.
